What it is

Raw unfiltered honey is honey as it exists in the beehive or obtained by extraction, settling, or straining, without adding heat. It contains pollen, beeswax, and propolis, which are removed in filtered honey. Bees produce honey from nectar collected from flowers.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use raw unfiltered honey primarily as a natural sweetener. Its distinct flavor can enhance baked goods, sauces, and beverages. It can also contribute to the texture and moisture of products.

Health notes

In the US, honey is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as a food ingredient. It is a natural source of sugars. The WHO has noted that added sugars, including honey, should be limited in the diet to reduce the risk of adverse health effects. JECFA has evaluated honey and established specifications for its composition and quality.

Allergen info

Honey is not a major allergen. It does not contain gluten.
