Honeycomb wax is pure beeswax. It can be eaten but has no nutritional value. Beeswax is used in food manufacture as a glazing agent, a binding agent, and as a mould-release agent.

Beeswax is generally considered safe to eat in small amounts as it is non-toxic and indigestible. However, consuming large quantities could potentially cause digestive issues. It is always best to use it in moderation and consult a medical professional if you have concerns.
