Texas Honey – 1 lb Plastic Squeeze Jar

Description

This honey was pulled from our hives in northern and central Colorado county in Texas (near Frelsburg and Columbus).  The honey was strained and NOT filtered so it has all the good stuff and taste that you would expect from great local honey.  Our honey is a mixture of lots of different wildflowers and trees from blackberries to bee balm to tallow.  We always pull our honey around the 4th of July to keep from getting the fouler tasting fall honey that we can get in this part of Texas.

The pictures are with and without the flash.  The flash pictures make the honey look very dark which is not the case.

We never buy or mix anyone else’s honey with our honey.  This honey is 100% all from our own hives.

We only offer 1 pound plastic squeeze bottles at this time.  The tops are flip tops for easy application and reuse at the table.

Our honey varies from year to year on how quickly it will crystallize.  We have some honey from three years ago that has only a tiny amount of crystallization in the bottom after all this time.  Where as a bottle of honey the following year crystalized in about 4 months!  If your honey crystallizes it does not mean it is bad, it means it is 100% pure honey. 

There are lots of different ways to de-crystallize honey but probably the easiest is to warm up a pan of water to about 110 degrees F and sit the bottle of honey in the warm water until there are no more crystals.  This can take several hours.  A quick search on the internet will help you find alternate ways to de-crystallize your honey.  I have seen some people leave their honey in their vehicle during the day but it needs to be monitored because it can easily get too hot.  As a rule honey should never get above 140 degrees (we strive to never let it get above 110 degrees) and NEVER put honey in the microwave!

Never feed honey to infants under the age of 1 year old.
