The sweetest delight

What is the sweetest delight,
The best part of the Moon,
Those who offer ingredients for it need light,
While the ones who make it wait for bloom?
 
 
Before revision (IGNORE):
(...)
Who make it needn't money, rather light
Forwhy they settle with bloom?

It sounds like honey, although I can't match it up with the moon clue.

Some people are average, some are just mean.

The moon could have to do with honeymoon.
Of course, technically it's not flowers that make honey, but bees. Flowers produce nectar, and bees process that into honey.

Yes to both.

Right you are. I reckon a little tweaking is in order. Still, "everybody" needs sunlight.

Out of towr's intervention, which is much appreciated, I revised the riddle that is NOW impeccable. Thank you again.
