HONEY CATEGORIES CONCERNING PROCESSING

Comb honey is pieces of honeycomb, as produced by the bees, where the beekeeper has done no processing to separate the honey from the beeswax. The beeswax comb, as well as the honey, is edible. Comb honey always fetches a very good price,  Buy Honey with Dried Pineapple Online

as the consumer can be sure that the honey has not been contaminated in any way. Ironically, this can be one of the easiest forms of honey to harvest and prepare for sale (see below).

This can look very attractive. It is important that the liquid honey is a type that is very light and clear, and will not granulate over a long period. Honeys from Acacia and Robinia pseudoacacia are often used for this. This type of product depends on the right type of honeys and excellent packaging, and can achieve a very good price. Extracted honey is honey obtained by centrifuging honeycombs. Pressed honey is extracted by pressing honeycombs with or without the application of moderate heat. Crystallised or granulated honey is strained honey that has crystallised (see below). Creamed honey is strained honey that has been seeded to start crystallisation and then stirred to produce a honey of uniform, soft consistency. On an industrial scale, honey is creamed by the ‘Dyce method’ (Dyce, 1975). About 20 percent of fine crystallised honey is mixed with liquid honey and the crystals are allowed to grow at 14 °C. This procedure stabilises the honey consistency, and does not affect the honey’s authenticity, as no foreign matter has been added or removed.
