First the field bee goes out and collects nectar, which it stores in an internal honey sac. They bring it back to the hive and transfer it to the house bee tongue to tongue. Then the house bee spreads a drop of nectar on the roof of a cell in a comb. Finally, more house bees cover every cell filled with modified nectar with a thin layer of wax. Honey is a product that honey bees make.
Humans use the honey for many different purposes.
Honey can be a substitute for sugar in many foods. You can make ice cream with honey but you would have to lower the temperature in the freezer because honey lowers the freezing point. Honey has a greater sweetening ability that sugar doesn t have. One cup of honey weighs twelve ounces while one cup of sugar weighs seven ounces. Honey was also used in various ways in history.
