ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — A group of student entrepreneurs from Orlando has taken its business national, thanks to a sweet surprise from Steve Harvey.
The students from Parramore appeared on Wednesday’s episode of “Steve” to talk about their business called Black Bee Honey.
According to the business, Black Bee Honey offers raw honey straight from the hive, with all profits invested back into the Parramore community to benefit the neighborhood's children.
During the interview segment, Harvey surprised the Central Florida students.
Khristian and Chris wanted to work for themselves but didn't know how, until Reginald came along and helped them start Black Bee Honey.

"We reached out to some people I know called iGourmet.com, and they want to help turn you into a national brand," Harvey told them.
The students' products are featured on the front page of the specialty produce and gift website all day Wednesday.
