| | Beeswax - Its History & Uses |
| | Beeswax, the material used by honeybees in the construction of their combs, is a product of their own bodies. | | | It is estimated that bees must consume 6-8 pounds of honey to produce one pound of beeswax. | | | The waxes of commerce may be divided into three groups; animal wax, of which beeswax is the most common; mineral wax, including the by-products from refined petroleum, paraffin and natural vegetable wax, obtained from the leaves or plant parts. |

| | Once the wax is well kneaded, it is deposited on the comb under construction or used to seal honey cells. | | | If the beeswax cools too quickly, a large quantity of these impurities will be trapped inside the wax as the block sets and it will have to be rendered again. | | | The reason is simple: darker, older comb has been used repeatedly for brood, so contains cocoons and waste or slumgum which absorb the wax, making it impossible to obtain all the wax during extraction. |

| | Melt some beeswax in your boiling pot and dip the wick into the wax (as in making hand-dipped candles) as many times as desired. | | | If the wax is too cold, it will not "want" to be rolled, may even crack, or at least not stick to itself. | | | Since these candles are so small AND hand-rolled (not solid), they won't burn for very long (1 hour?), so giving them a solid wax core can aid burn time. |
