12 ounces of our delicious spring honey with a couple of nice chunks of spring honeycomb in the jar. It's the best of two worlds. You have your raw liquid honey to put in your tea, oatmeal, or however you love to use it, AND, when you feel like a special treat, break off a bit of the honeycomb for a delicious, all-natural, healthy "chewing gum" kind of experience. Yum!
Both the extracted honey and the honeycomb are harvested in spring so you can expect they'll be light in color and delicate in flavor. Linden-wildflower is usually what our bees make the most of in spring, and that's usually what our chunk and comb honey is.

Pure creamed, or "set" honey, perfect for spreading! Honey naturally crystallizes. It's perfectly fine, but some people don't like the crunchy texture of crystallized honey. By "seeding" liquid honey with very finely crystallized honey, we control the process to create a delicious, smooth spread. This is a great way to feed honey to children (over 12 months in age) as it's less likely to drip. We used to add freeze-dried powdered fruit to create different spreads but NJ's new cottage industry laws prohibit the practice unless one obtains a special license. What we've done instead is to make creamed honey from each of our varietal honeys so you can pick your favorite one!

The ultimate natural raw honey: honey still in the beeswax comb, exactly as the bees created it. Comb honey is like natural chewing gum, and, although Americans are more accustomed to extracted honey, meaning "extracted from the beeswax comb," in Europe, comb honey is spread on toast or eaten as-is for a special treat. Net weight 12 ounces
