Beeswax is the secretion from worker
bees used for the building of combs and the sealing of
stores of honey. |
|
The secretion of beeswax is produced by
glands on the underside of the bee's abdomen. These glands
become active when a bee is roughly 8 to 17 days old. |

Pure beeswax is one of nature's most
perfect products,
and is far superior to any other type of candle wax.

The temperature of the hive is critical and
must remain between 92 - 95 degrees Fahrenheit.
Additionally, an extra supply of food (Pollen) must be
available to the worker bees that are of the correct age for
secreting wax. |
|
|
|
Beeswax is so pure that is actually has the
highest melting point of any natural wax - 149 degrees
Fahrenheit. |
