British Starflower (Borage) Honeycomb in Honey Jar
Delicate Succulent Cambridgeshire Starflower (Borage) Honeycomb in Honey
New harvest! After 6 months of being out of stock our stunning Borage honeycomb is back! Harvested in early August, this beautiful variety has just a 3-week period where the bees produce this smooth mild unique floral honey.
The honeycomb by itself is extremely popular due to the wax layers being so thin, and now we introduce this gorgeous honeycomb in a jar of borage honey. Being a fresh British harvest this honeycomb has thinner layers of wax and is almost melt-in-your mouth, all of which is completely edible.
This honey, also known as starflower, has a very pleasant mild vanilla taste with hints of flora. It is one of the lightest coloured honey available with a smooth consistency and another sell-out at our events.
Imagine the delicate floral notes of borage blossoms, captured in both the honey and the honeycomb itself. It's a sensory experience like no other with some incredible health benefits. For example, starflower is a popular herbal remedy, and is particularly useful as a source of GLA, which can help to reduce inflammation in the body. It may be especially beneficial for women's health conditions such as PMS and to help improve the quality of skin.
A unique honey in its profile, texture and taste. This delightful honey has subtle flavours and is mouth-wateringly smooth. It is a beautifully light colour nectar brought to us by bees that love the British starflower. This all culminates in a pure real raw honey created from bees that pollinate with this blue super flower.
*UPDATE - very small harvest so far due to the weather!
Uses
It is very versatile in recipes such as: cakes, cookies, dessert toppings, ice creams, warm honey teas, salads and meat glazes, this is because its light flavour does not tend to alter the taste of a dish.
