Description:Honey is a sweet food made by bees using nectar
from flowers. The variety produced by honey bees (the genus Apis) is the one
most commonly referred to, as it is the type of honey collected by most
beekeepers and consumed by humans. Honeys produced by other bees (bumblebees,
stingless bees) and insects (honey wasps) have different properties, and they
are not discussed in this article.
Honey bees
transform nectar into honey by a process of regurgitation and evaporation. They
store it as a primary food source in wax honeycombs inside the beehive.
