Was just wondering what the pros and cons are of each for winter feeding i know most use syrup and treatments can be added but have read that some beeks use fondant exclusively.
Is it easier for the bees to store fondant as the weather gets worse due to less water content, or does it take more work to move it as i suppose its "harder" (for want of a better word) than syrup.
Just thinking out loud
