Substance from which honeycomb is constructed (7)

I believe the answer is:

beeswax

(Other definitions for beeswax that I've seen before include "A sex web (anag)" , "It's used to make honeycombs and candles" , "Hive-made polish" , "Substance used to build honeycombs" , "Output of buzzers" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
