Please note: Our 500g Jars are crystallized. This is completely normal and does not degrade the quality and healthiness of the honey. It is a sign of its purity. Should you wish, you can return it to a runny state by gently warming.

Please note: If the honey sets (crystalizes) please don’t panic as it has not gone off. It is a natural characteristic of Raw Honey. Simply place your jar of raw honey in a glass bowl, quarter fill a pan with boiling water then place the bowl into the pan. The steam should heat the bowl, which heats the jar with out over heating it. Keep the water boiling by turning up the heat on the hob. Your honey should be runny again in 10 minutes or so (depending on size).
