Candied honey has become crystalized. The colour and texture is different, but the flavours and nutrients are unchanged. Because of the high saturation of sugars suspended in honey, crystals form resulting in thick honey with amazing texture that sticks to the roof of your mouth.
|| POLLEN ||
As a worker bee moves between flowers, pollen attaches to her hairy body. The grains of pollen are rough-surfaced - with varied textures, with the bee's body acting in a similar way to velcro, hooking the pollen into the hairs for transportation between flowers.
Seasonal changes in the honeybee colony means more drones growing in preparation for spring. Who are the drones, what do they do? Drones are the male bees. Bigger and stronger than the female worker bees but have only one job: to fertilise a new queen from a nearby colony.
Do bees sleep? According to science, YES. Scientists have looked at how humans and other mammals sleep, and they have found bees do similar things. Just as a humans (or mammals) body relaxes and enters different phases of sleep (light sleep, deep sleep), so do bees!
Pollen is made up of a complex mix of protein, amino acids, fatty acids, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants.Energy packed, and seriously healthy. Excellent addition to any health conscious individual.
We are a small team of passionate beekeepers and bee advocates, that look forward to welcoming you into our exciting world of bees through a range of honey products, pollination services, as well as epic educational workshops with hands-on experiences to boot 😎 🤙

#COVID19 has seen the Chinese charging $1.90AUD per mask when ordering QTY of 10,000 units. How is that feasible? Total price manipulation based on global demand, bullshit
