Yes. Various species of wasps and hornets (large wasps) do make a kind of honey to feed their developing larvae. In the wasps with larger nests and larger colonies, surplus honey is made, very much like with bees, but in lesser amounts.
Likewise, people ask, is wasp honey edible?
The honey these wasps make is actually edible, and is said to taste very similar to honeybee honey. People have been eating this honey since long before Europeans arrived (with their bees). To this day people still harvest the honey for food.
Moreover, do any wasps make honey?
Bees process the nectar into honey. Wasps actually make small amounts of honey. Wasps do not make enough for humans to collect, economically speaking. However, some wasps species make a very little bit of honey.
There is not enough honey in wasp nests to make their honey marketable. The only economic source of honey is from bee hives.
