Title: Honeycomb boxes for packaging
Post by: luvin honey on July 27, 2011, 08:41:20 PM
Hi all--I searched. I really did. Here and on Google. But I could not find those approximately 4 x 4" honeycomb boxes. My bees are actually producing this year! And, having topbars, most of it is beautiful honeycomb in virgin wax. I might actually stop snarfing it down so rapidly that I could sell a bit.

If I could find boxes.

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me! Of course, less expensive would be better than more expensive.  :roll:

Any time.    All the bee suppliers should carry them.

Dadant it slightly less expensive but expect to pay $1 per box.  The Better Bee ones are the same and you can buy as many or as little as you want, but they are shipped loose so one or two invariably gets cracked.  The Dadant ones they are boxed very nicely in batches of 12 but you can only buy them in dozens.
