Fresh Raw Honeycomb Tub
Superfood from the hives, raw honeycomb at its finest
*ACACIA 500g HONEYCOMB TUB BACK IN STOCK!*
The most nutritious of all raw honey is honey still sealed in the wax cells of the honeycomb. Honey in its purest form (inside the cells) contains very little water. But honey, when exposed to air, has a tendency to pull water from the atmosphere. Thus ensuring honeycomb honey is packed with vitamins, enzymes, pollen and antioxidants.
It is available in three varieties, our beautiful Cambridgeshire Starflower (Borage) honeycomb, our Acacia variety from Hungary with a pleasant mild taste & hints of vanilla, and new - our Buckinghamshire Spring honeycomb!
This fresh raw spring honeycomb is a luxury pick for any connoisseur of honey. This succulent honeycomb harvest promises a special sensory experience, boasting aromatic notes with the bees feeding from hawthorn and horse chestnut. Harvested in early June, this is as fresh as it comes.
All are suitable for all members of the family due to their fresh and light flavour.
A common question we are asked is regarding the wax and if it can be eaten. The simple answer is yes you can! Although it can be chewy, and makes for a good, natural alternative to chewing gum. However it isn't advisable for it to be consumed in large quantities.
