Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -The basic nest architecture for all honeybees is similar: honey is stored in the upper part of the comb; beneath it are rows of pollen-storage cells, worker-brood cells, and drone-brood cells, in that order. The peanut-shaped queen cells are normally built at the lower edge of the comb.

Detailed explanation-2: -Honeycomb is a hexagonal cell structure made up of bee wax where honey bees collect and store the honey for future use.

Detailed explanation-3: -We sell our Honeycomb in plastic cases that are air-tight. We still recommend storing them (for short-term storage) in a plastic bag after opening. It’s honey. It will make a little mess, which will be worth every minute!
