Why Has My Honey Turned Solid?
Because It's Pure Honey!
Have you ever noticed your honey developing a solid texture with granules? Don't worry—this is a natural hallmark of genuine, unprocessed honey. Crafted by our diligent bees, raw honey undergoes crystallization over time, confirming its purity and ensuring you're experiencing honey in its most natural form, untouched by additives.
Honey is a concentrated blend of
natural sugars—glucose and fructose—derived from
the nectar our bees diligently collect. Due to its high
sugar content, honey naturally tends to crystallize.
Over time, these sugars gradually form granules, thickening the honey into a solid state. This natural process not only validates the authenticity of your honey but also preserves its delightful, rich flavour.
All raw honey will crystallize due to its high glucose content.
Pure honey contains natural pollen, which enhances the natural flavour of honey and leads to crystallization over time.
Low water content in honey prevents fermentation but facilitates crystallization.
Different flower nectars vary in their glucose-to-fructose ratio, affecting how quickly honey crystallizes.
While crystallization signifies honey's purity, if you prefer it in liquid form,
transforming semi or fully-crystallized honey back to its smooth, liquid state is easy
*Do not put the plastic jar in the microwave.
Crystallization is a natural process that serves as a testament to the purity and quality of honey. It indicates that the honey is raw, retaining all its natural enzymes, nutrients, and
rich flavour—just the way nature intended.
