Unlocking the Mystery of Dark Honeycomb

By A Mystery Man Writer

Also known as black honeycomb or brood comb, dark honeycomb is comb that has hosted brood (bee larvae). If you thought virgin honeycomb was a delicacy, you’re in for a real treat with brood comb. Once you taste past the sweetness, you’ll notice a nutty, complex flavor.
We often associate honeycomb with a bright, golden color. After all, that’s the color of raw honey. But odds are that if you eat enough honeycomb, you’re bound to encounter comb that’s darker than usual. New beekeepers who spot dark comb for the first time might be worried, but they soon learn that dark honeycomb is a normal part of a healthy beehive. Anyone who’s eaten dark comb knows there’s a whole lot more to these deeply colored cells than meets the eye.
