Beeswax (Cera alba) is a natural wax produced by honey bees of the genus Apis. The wax is formed into scales by eight wax-producing glands in the abdominal segments of worker bees, which discard it in or at the hive.
Beeswax you can use to make balms and salves, candles, wood polish, leather polish and soaps. Beeswax is poured into 50g blocks.
