Fondant

For the first time, the bees are actually taking the fondant.

Each hive has a single packet of Dr Oetker's Regal-Ice Ready to Roll Icing on it. Nicely, the contents are in a plastic foil pack, which can be neatly sliced open to sit on top of the crown board. The bees are chewing through the fondant, making rippled channels as they dig deeper and deeper.

Huh, I hadn't thought of using pre-packaged fondant. That's pretty awesome. In the states, everyone seems to talk about making your own fondant. But this would be a convenient alternative. Thanks for the idea!
