What it is

Dry honey is honey that has had most of its water removed, usually through dehydration or spray-drying. This process results in a powdered or granulated form of honey. It retains the natural sweetness and flavor of liquid honey.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use dry honey as a sweetener and flavor enhancer. Its powdered form makes it easier to incorporate into dry mixes and baked goods, preventing clumping and moisture issues. It is often found in bread mixes, baked goods, seasonings, and confectionery.

Health notes

Dry honey is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. Like liquid honey, it is primarily composed of sugars, which can impact blood glucose levels. The WHO has noted that added sugars should be limited in the diet. JECFA has evaluated honey and established specifications for its composition and quality.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. Honey is produced by bees and is not derived from any of the nine FDA major allergens. It does not contain gluten.
