Meet her royal highness
In every hive there are thousands of worker bees and drone bees. But there is one bee – who isn’t a worker or a drone – who is very very special... the queen bee.
If you store honey at very low temperatures, it 'frosts'. Frosting is harmless and happens when the natural crystals begin to bond together to form a lattice network. To soften the honey, warm it gently in an airing cupboard for a day or so.
