Meet the Beekeeper

Meet our local beekeeper from Belgium, where our Belgian honey comes from. With no less than 850 beehives, spread across various locations, he ensures a diverse range of honey types. Depending on where the bees collect their nectar, various kinds of honey are produced. The beehives from which our Rapeseed Honey originates are located in nature where an enormous amount of rapeseed flowers bloom.

Product description

Rapeseed honey is produced in various countries, including Belgium, the Netherlands, and Canada. This honey comes from the nectar of rapeseed plants (Brassica napus), which create expansive yellow fields when in bloom. The plants are known for their abundant nectar, resulting in a plentiful honey harvest.

Taste

This honey has a mild and sweet taste with subtle floral notes. It is an excellent choice for lovers of soft and delicate honey.

Texture

Rapeseed honey naturally has a creamy consistency, making it easy to spread on bread, toast, or pancakes. Rapeseed honey tends to crystallize naturally and develop a creamy texture, making it easy to spread even at lower temperatures.

Rapeseed honey is not only delicious to enjoy on its own but can also be a wonderful addition to various recipes. Here are some inspiring ideas:

• Rapeseed Honey Tea: Add a teaspoon of rapeseed honey to your favorite tea for natural sweetness and a hint of floral flavor.

Shelf life

Rapeseed honey is known for its long shelf life, meaning you can enjoy it for a long time if you maintain the correct storage conditions. Here are some important points to remember:

1. Store in a cool, dry place: It is essential to store rapeseed honey in a place where the temperature is stable and does not fluctuate significantly. Preferably, store it at room temperature.

2. Tightly sealed: Ensure the honey jar or container is tightly sealed to prevent moisture and air from entering the honey. This helps preserve its freshness.

3. Check the expiry date: Although honey generally does not spoil, it is advisable to check the expiry date on the packaging for the best taste and quality.

Allergen information

Rapeseed honey is generally safe for most people to consume. However, it may contain allergens that can cause allergic reactions in some individuals. The main allergens in honey are:

• Pollen: Honey may contain small amounts of pollen, which can be an issue for people with pollen allergies. It can lead to mild allergic reactions such as sneezing or itchy eyes.

• Bee products: People with allergies to bee stings should be cautious about consuming honey, as it contains bee products. In rare cases, they may experience allergic reactions.

• Other allergens: Depending on the source of the honey, other allergens may be present, such as pollen from specific plants. People with known allergies should always be cautious and check the origin of the honey.

It is important to remember that honey is not suitable for children under one year of age due to the risk of botulism, a rare but serious condition.
