I only buy honey that has crystallized a bit. AFAIK only natural honey does this. It's insane that people don't like this, so sellers are heating the honey to stop the crystallization.
- raducu 7y agoI can confirm, that's my brother in laws advice and he's a beekeeper. I also buy directly from trusted beekeepers when he's out of honey.
- pacomerh 7y agoyes indeed. This happens to the one I buy "BLOOM" which says its pure RAW Honey, and in the ingredients that's all it is "raw honey".
- toast0 7y agoIt's harder to use honey that's crystallized, because it doesn't flow out the spout of the bear shapped bottle. It's not hard to warm it up yourself, but it's an extra step you need to do.
- nkrisc 7y agoI have a jar of honey that stays a soft solid around room temp, sort of like coconut oil does. I assume that's crystallized honey? Or maybe it was just adulterated with coconut oil. It comes in a wide-mouth jar so it's at least easy to scoop out.
- rolph 7y agohoney can have natural source maltose and that will make a honey crystallize like you describe. these are often sold as creamed or whipped honey, and are often stirred to promote crystallization. A honey lacking maltose will crystallize into large hard crystals that have to be melted .
