beewax 99% Yellow Lanshan

Beeswax is produced by bees in the form of tiny scales which are "sweated" from the segments on the underside of the abdomen. To stimulate the production of beeswax the bees gorge themselves with honey or sugar syrup and huddle together to raise the temperature of the cluster. To produce one pound of wax requires the bees to consume about ten pounds of honey.
Beeswax is one of nature's most amazing products! It is derived from the nectar of flowers collected by honeybees (the same source that honey comes from). Honeybees have four pairs of glands on the underside of their abdomen that produces this increade product. They use this beeswax to build the wax comb within their hives. Beeswax is considered to be among man's earliest raw materials having been used for thousands of years to make cosmetics, medicines and art.
Beeswax is a very hard, sticky substance. Because of this, it can be difficult to break into small chunks to use in recipes. We recommend to use beeswax pastilles to forego this messy process. They are especially easy to measure and pour. With a beautiful light gold color and sweet honey aroma, they are completely ready-to-use. No addiitonal processing or filtering necessary.
