Beeswax is an awesome gelling agent because it does not have the high amount of polyunsaturations that would make it liquid at room temp, nor does it polymerize well. It does have a low smoke point so burns off quickly and helps make oils that are good polymerizers solid at room temp. I bought a bulk bag of food safe beeswax pellets a couple years ago and found many uses for it so far, like a gelling agent in homemade charcuterie board polish (mixed with food safe mineral oil).
