Show transcript
Honey making is a complex, natural process which takes a very long time. Bees visit thousands of colourful flowers to collect nectar with their tongue. The nectar travels to the honey stomach where the enzymes break it down into smaller molecules. The bees transfer the nectar into the honeycomb cells and flap their wings to evaporate the water from the nectar. Bees seal the cells with a wax lid. The honey cannot leak or expire.
