In the case of the honey I used it likely has beeswax in it from being raw and unfiltered solid honey.
I’ve been using avocado oil lately in place of mct oil.
I haven’t been using lecithin much anymore truth be told. I haven’t been noticing any reduced effects without, but in the case of where I know I’m making an edible for someone with digestive issues I’ll also try to find out what will work on a personal level for them best.
Sometimes the recipe calls for emulsion and in that case I’ve been finding guar gum to be the most useful, but using it is trial and error for the end result Sometimes. It thickens with time like gelatin.
