Our answers to your questions
How would you describe the flavour profile of Bee Australian honey?
Bee Australian honey from Southeast Queensland has a complex flavour profile of sweet sunshine and sunshine-kissed flowers. Its sweetness is a symphony of sugar and honeysuckle, with tones of almond, toffee, and a hint of citrus. Balanced by a subtle and refreshing acidity, this honey is full-bodied and richly textured, with a lingering note of golden caramel and wildflower.
Professional singers and public speakers love Bee Australian single-serve honey sachets. Why?
Honey is an excellent source of energy, providing the vocalist or speaker with needed energy for a performance or presentation. Our honey sachets are a natural source of carbohydrates for quick energy, and avoids the sugar spikes and crashes associated with other simple carbohydrates. Furthermore, honey is rich in antioxidants, which helps reduce inflammation in the throat and can have a soothing effect on delicate vocal cords. Finally, the natural sweetness of honey provides a great way to keep your mouth moist if you’re talking or singing for an extended period of time.
Does Bee Australian honey have a unique flavour or taste?
Honey from different parts of the world can taste different because of the varying plants and flowers that bees gather nectar from. Depending on the climate and the vegetation of a certain region, different types of flowers and plants will bloom at different times and produce different flavoured nectar for the bees to collect. Consequently, the honey produced from bees in that region will also be different and unique in flavour.
The most common flowers for bees in Southeast Queensland are Grevilleas, Bottlebrushes, Banksias, Eucalypts, Leptospermums, Melaleucas, Callistemons, Thyme and Lavender. These flowers produce a range of honeys that are prized for their therapeutic, medicinal and health-promoting benefits. Other common flowers for bees in Southeast Queensland include Callistemons, Hakeas, Kunzeas, Dillwynias, Correas, Chrysocephalums, Hardenbergias and Asterolas.

Is honeycomb safe to eat?
Yes, honeycomb is safe for humans to eat. This sweet treat is made up of beeswax which has been used for centuries for its health benefits. Honeycomb also contains trace levels of propolis, another natural product made by bees, which has antiseptic, antifungal, and immune boosting properties. Honeycomb is often referred to as a superfood, because of its high nutritional value. It is rich in B vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and enzymes which can help the body absorb nutrients more efficiently. It also has antibacterial and antioxidant properties which may help to prevent cell damage. In addition, honeycomb is packed with proteins and carbohydrates, which can give an energy boost.
Overall, honeycomb is safe to eat if consumed in moderation. Too much can be difficult to digest, and it can also lead to undesired weight gain. Therefore, it is best to enjoy honeycomb as a special treat in moderation.

How do bees make honey?
Bees make honey through a complex process of collecting and reforming nectar from flowers. To start, a worker bee will fly from flower to flower, gathering nectar in its long proboscis. Depending on the species, the bee may suck the nectar directly from the petal or from a seepage that appears when the petal is scratched. As the bee carries the nectar back to the hive, the nectar is mixed with its saliva, beginning the process of enzymatic digestion. The bee will then deposit the mixture into open cells within the hive, with other workers fanning the mixture to evaporate some of the water content, helping thicken the mixture into a thick syrup. Bees will then feed on the syrup and spread it across other open cells. Through this process, the remaining water content is further decreased and the syrup is now officially honey. This honey is then capped and ready to be harvested by beekeepers.
Why does honey crystallise, and is it still okay to eat?
Honey is sucrose-rich and contains two major components: fructose and glucose. When honey is stored at high temperatures, a lower water activity in the liquid will promote crystallization of sucrose. This is because the liquid loses water and the sucrose granules stick together, creating the crystals. Crystallization also occurs when the liquid contains enough glucose to create intermolecular forces between the granules, as well as when the honey is aged for a long time.
Crystallized honey is still edible and contains the same nutritional value as liquid honey. While some may not particularly enjoy the texture of crystallized honey, it is still safe to eat and the flavor remains unchanged. To restore its liquid form, crystallized honey can be gently heated in a microwave or over the stove.
In conclusion, honey is able to crystallize due to high temperatures, the presence of glucose, and aging. Crystallized honey is safe to eat, and some people even enjoy the signature "crunch" that it takes on in this form.
