Honey

Types of honey: discover what suits you

There are many types of honey, each with its own aroma, colour and flavour. These differences arise because bees collect nectar from different flowers and plants, giving each honey its unique character.

• Acacia honey: mild and light in colour. This honey stays liquid for a long time and is perfect for stirring into tea or drizzling over yoghurt.
• Flower honey: made from the nectar of various flowers. This honey has a gentle, sweet flavour and is delicious on bread or in dressings.
• Mountain honey: darker in colour with a strong, spicy flavour. Tasty with cheese or in warm dishes.
• Buckwheat honey: full-flavoured and very dark in colour. Ideal for lovers of intense, robust flavours.

Each type of honey has its own use. Try them out and discover which one suits your taste best.

Using honey in baking

If you enjoy baking, you know that flavour lies in the details. Honey gives your bakes that little bit extra. Use acacia honey in cakes for a subtle sweetness, or choose buckwheat honey if you prefer a stronger, spicier aroma. Honey works well in biscuits, cakes, glazes and even bread.

Did you know that honey also helps keep your bakes fresh for longer? Thanks to its natural sugars and moisture-binding properties, muffins and cakes stay moist. So next time you bake, consider using honey. Choose flower honey for a gentle sweetness or buckwheat honey for a more intense flavour.

Combining honey with other Baktotaal products

Honey pairs well with many other ingredients. Think of seeds, grains, nuts and fruits as a topping for cakes or pies. Mix honey with mascarpone or Greek yoghurt for a sweet filling. Use it in a cake mix for extra flavour. Even in a savoury tart with brie or goat’s cheese, honey adds a surprisingly sweet touch. In short, honey is incredibly versatile.
