What makes Stingless Bee Honey one of the top sugary foods to consume!
Being stung by a bee causes extreme pain. Therefore, when considering raising bees for authentic, unfiltered honey, the fear of getting stung impedes us. What about giving a greeting to stingless bees? Meliponini tribe consists of a large variety of around 500 species of stingless bees that are commonly found in sub-tropical and tropical regions.
Like Apis mellifera (common honeybees), stingless bees live in permanent colonies with a queen bee and a team of worker bees. The bees collect nectar and pollen to nourish the larvae in the colonies. They keep honey in the hive for later use.
Various names are given to honey produced by stingless honeybees, such as pot honey, Meliponine honey, Kelulut honey in Malaysia, and sugarbag honey in Australia.
