Is it possible to wax it?

If its fresh made by you, either wrap it tightly and put in a airtight container, or store it in the whey in a container in the fridge.

Fresh mozzarella needs to be eaten within a week also, otherwise, it dries out :(

I always just wrap each ball (I shape it into baseball size wads) in plastic wrap or put them into airtight containers. But we do usually eat it up pretty fast! I did see fresh mozz stored in whey in a jar, at Whole Foods, but mine does get gooey when I do that at home. I usually have to store mine on top of homemade pizza, to make everyone around here happy!!!

I put fresh mozzarella in a container filled with water. It keeps it nice and moist for me.
