I understand the attraction , beeswax crayons have the same smell than
a bee
hive . Everytime i go by the beehives it makes me salivate . In nature
honey
is available only with this smelly package : bees wax. My son too was
eating
candle ( pure beeswax) when a baby.  Once he had access to honey in
the comb
He learned quick that candles were not very satisfying by them selves
