Hexagons are the most volumetrically efficient shape for a 2-dimensional cellular structure. In other words, if you want to hold a given amount of honey using the MINIMUM amount of wax? You make a hexigon.

They make the combs from wax excreted by glands specially developed for that purpose.
Honey comb is a section of hexagonal shaped (six sided) cells built by honey bees for three main purposes. The queen bee lays an egg in every cell that has been specially prepared for that purpose by the worker bees. Some cells are used for storing honey and others are used for storing pollen.
Bees store honey in comb cells which are capped over with wax.
the cell
Bumble bees do not have honey pots, the keep their honey in honey combs.
Wax
In hexagonal cells in their hive.
Because regular hexagonal shapes are able to tessellate leaving no gaps or overlaps.
Bees store honey in a honeycomb. The individual hexagonal compartment where honey is stored is called a cell.
