Honey Candies

Welcome to Honey Candies, made by traditional methods with natural honey. In this category you will find sweets and confectionery made with honey, in bulk formats intended both for your own consumption and for resale in a shop, at a market or on a fair stand.

The hard candies in this range contain 15% honey, a proportion you can taste and see in the amber colour of the sweet. The full ingredient list and nutritional data are printed on the packaging of each reference.

Main Products in the Honey Candies Category

  • Honey Candies with 15% Raw Honey - 2kg bag: classic hard candy with 15% honey. Clean honey flavour, with no added aromas. 2 kg format.

The 2 kg format and resale

The 2 kg bags are designed for selling loose: in a beekeeping shop, at a market or on a fair stand. The price per kilo is far lower than pre-bagged sweets, and you decide the final format. If you repack for resale, remember that the label must comply with Regulation EU 1169/2011: product name, ingredient list, allergens, net weight, batch and packer details. Suitable label stock is available in our Honey labels category.

Store the candies somewhere cool and dry, away from direct light: humidity is what makes hard candy clump together and softens toffee more than it should.

¿Tienes alguna duda sobre Honey Candies?

What is in honey sweets?

Real honey, in a stated proportion: 15 % honey in both the plain and the eucalyptus ones. There are also honey pearls with propolis.

That percentage is what separates them from a «honey-flavoured» sweet, where the honey can be token or simply flavouring. They are sold in 2 kg bags for sale by weight, and there is an artisan lollipop from €0.39 for the counter.

Do honey sweets contain added sugar?

It depends on the product. In many hard sweets, sugar and glucose syrup form the base and honey is incorporated in a declared proportion; in the current range there are products indicating around 15% honey. Other formats, such as toffees or lollipops, have different formulations.

Always check the ingredients list and the nutritional information of the specific product. Being called a 'honey sweet' does not mean it is made solely with honey nor does it allow the claim 'no added sugars' unless stated on the label.

What do honey and propolis candies contain?

They usually combine a sugar or glucose syrup base with honey and a propolis preparation; some references add flavourings, plant extracts, acidulants or other ingredients. The quantities and type of extract vary, so the valid composition is the one on the label.

Check allergens, warnings and consumption conditions, especially if there is sensitivity to hive products. Propolis does not change the food category of the candy: any claim must be authorised and supported by the label.

How should honey candies be stored to prevent them from becoming moist?

Keep them in their tightly sealed container, in a cool, dry place, away from sunlight and heat sources. Sugars are hygroscopic: they absorb moisture from the environment, which makes the surface sticky and can cause the pieces to stick together.

Seal the packet immediately after each use and avoid sudden temperature changes that could cause condensation. Refrigeration is not necessary unless indicated on the label; removing them from the cold could cause water condensation. Follow the recommended consumption and the manufacturer's conditions.
