Candycane Bee
"While an outdated tradition, the gift of giving bees was a popular way of showing love at Hivemas, albeit at the expense of the Post Office's sanity."
The Candycane Bee is a Tier 3 Social Bee species found during the Hivemas event. They can be found randomly in the presents that spawn in the world during the event.
Like other event related bees + butterflies, the Candycane Bee is not required to beat the game.
