Welcome

Beekeepers and crafters, Bunny and John Switzenberg make wonderful hand-crafted cinnamon-scented beeswax ornaments. Many of the molds they use are genuine antique German chocolate molds.  Some of these molds have been in the family for over 120 years when John’s great grandfather brought them with him when he emigrated from Germany in 1884!

During the forty plus years the Switzenberg’s have been married, they have expanded that original mold collection into one of the largest antique mold collections in the country. They travel around the eastern United States going to approximately 35 craft shows each year.

This year, as many of you know, there has been a definite problem with honey bees. It is called colony collapse disorder.  Many beekeepers are losing a large portion or even all of their bees.  Beekeepers have lost 36.1% of the hives in this country already this year. Beeswax is becoming more scarce and we don’t know how long we will be able to have this web site
