Praise for Beeswax Alchemy:

“An excellent introduction and solid technique instruction to make candles, lotions, and soaps with beeswax. . . . The true strength of this book is its instructions for making homemade body products. While similar in coverage to Leeann Coleman and Jayne Barnes’s Honey Crafting, Ahnert’s book provides better body products and more detailed technical instruction. Strongly recommended.” —Library Journal

“This is the book I’ve been waiting for. Excellent instructions. Bountiful information. Beautifully done.” —Kim Flottum, author of The Backyard Beekeeper and editor of Bee Culture magazine
