Honeycomb - Pure Organic Honeycomb 200g

This delicious certified pure and natural honeycomb is the result of the wonderful architecture of the bee's comb. Biting down on a rich, sticky piece of honeycomb is a unique gastronomic experience; whilst enjoying the unique flavour and texture of this natural product.

SUITABLE FOR EVERYDAY USE

Bees do some pretty amazing things, not the least of which is the creation of their hexagonal wax celled wonder, the honeycomb. You may have seen a real honeycomb, but have you ever wondered why or how it was created? The why is simple, bees need somewhere to store honey, pollen and their larvae.

As for the how, well...

Bees make honeycomb using wax from glands on their stomachs or abdomens. Generally speaking, a bee needs to eat about two tablespoons of honey to make one ounce of wax, so making wax takes some time!
Some of the bees then make circles in the wax using their body as a tool and then they go on to form the hexagon cells.

But why hexagons?
Well it seems bees are pretty good at maths and geometry too as hexagonal structures are particularly strong and waste no space when used as a building material.
Aren't bees clever!
Not only is honeycomb delightful to look at, but it can also be enjoyed as a delicious treat or given as a unique gift.

Serving suggestions include cheese and antipasto platters, or alternatively you can eat it the same way you would honey from a jar.

Of course, like other Berringa products, it is suitable for vegetarians.
