At Woodside Honey, our honey is kept as natural as possible. It is extracted, gravity filtered, and jarred — we don’t heat treat or process our honey to slow down crystallisation (also known as “candying”).
That means over time, your honey may naturally set. This is completely normal for pure honey and is often a sign of quality and minimal processing.
This season we’ve noticed something interesting: one batch candied quite quickly, while another is only just starting to set. That’s simply due to the different floral sources the 🐝🐝🐝🐝 were working with at the time — different nectars behave differently.
If you’re curious about candied honey, Beechworth Honey has a great article explaining:
- why honey crystallises;
- how to gently return it to runny form;
and some really handy ways to use candied honey!
Bottom line: candied honey isn’t spoiled or faulty — it’s just honey doing what pure honey naturally does!
