I love honey and these finds are all so wonderful. I may have to start with your new favorite honey though 🙂
Katie
Oak tree honey really is something else. I loved the lavender and the autumn honeys too, though, so it was hard to choose a favorite! My favorite Florida honey is tupelo- the champagne of honey!
Kacey @ The Cookie Writer
I am a big honey lover! It so helped my sore throat a couple of weeks ago. I actually use a mix of mineral oil and beeswax to keep my butcherblock countertops fresh.
Katie
What a great idea! I’ll have to write that down for later. 🙂

All great gift ideas, thank you for including TheraBee! We love the Cinnamon Vanilla Culinary Honey on everything from buttered toast to swirled in our ice cream. It’s a family favorite. Again, many, many thanks.
Katie
A pleasure for sure! I’m going to try the Cinnamon Vanilla honey in my granola recipe next.
Lydia @Suitcase Foodist
A little too excited about that Honey Tequila… It is calling my name.

Katie,
I am a fan of all the local honeys I’ve tried since I weaned myself off spun honey my mom brought back from Canada. I love these ideas, and I bet this was a really fun post to prepare!
Thanks!
Katie
It was a blast! So many people producing so many great products out there. I love sharing the good finds!

Katie
Me too! I even pair my honey with complementary tea flavors- orange blossom honey with Earl Grey tea, for example.
