    Honeycomb is the name for Moda pre-cuts. Robert Kaufman also makes them.

    You can also buy from sellers on eBay and Esty.

    I still prefer "boring" descriptions of precuts over the cutesy names for them.

    10 inch squares over layer cakes
    2.5 inch wide strips over jelly rolls

    etc.

    Maybe they will start selling tiny trimmings as "sprinkles"?

    Because "honeycomb" is a cuter, more appealing, word. It's all about the marketing, don't you know?
