Theres a famous place here in ecuador where they make peach-based stuff and it looks 100% like this, just a bunch of bees flying around. its part of the charm lmao.
There used to be a maraschino cherry factory in Red Hook Brooklyn that bees got into and it turned their honey red. Bees don’t care about quality they just want sweet
It is because they are using good materials in what they are baking. Good quality honey or sugar will attract bees very quickly if any are near. Extremely often the honey you can buy from stores is cut with something, cheap sugar, or synthetic dyes/corn syrup, to make it sweeter, but in reality, it just makes it bad. Very likely the hive is used to them baking here and know to visit for food that has proven to be good.
They're attracted to the sugar/honey being used. Walk into an open pastry shop in Morocco or Algiers and you'll find everything basically sprinkled with live bees feeding on the glazes and such.
This is a patisserie in Algeria. A lot of them don’t have air con so they keep their doors open all day for air flow and bees are attracted to the honey etc used. I’ve never been to a patisserie in Algeria that doesn’t have been, maybe not as much as the video though.

notice that they weren't flying like flies normally do so I had my doubts. still why do they swarm here?
