These products are harvested in large quantities while respecting the rhythm of the seasons and the richness of the flowers of our terroirs.

The diversity of textures, a range of pleasures

Hédène honeys are available in liquid or crystallized honey, depending on their origin and seasonality. Each jar of honey is a tribute to the black bee, to French apiaries, and to local honey, a true reflection of our nature. We guarantee a honey with no added sugar, unprocessed, made from nectar and pollen, retaining all its natural properties.

Creamy honey:
Our creamy honeys, obtained from a delicate brewing process, impart a much-appreciated velvety texture. They are perfect for spreading or incorporating into honey-based recipes. This soft texture melts on the tongue, releasing typical floral and honeydew aromas. It's the ideal format for lovers of smooth honey.

Liquid honey:
Prized for its fluidity, liquid honey is ideal for topping a pancake, sweetening a drink or incorporating into a marinade. It's the perfect honey for everyday consumption, faithful to the taste of natural honey.

Controlled crystallization honey:
Some honeys crystallize naturally, forming fine crystals. At Hédène, this transformation is controlled to offer a unique sensory experience. This texture, somewhere between solid and creamy, confers a diversity of uses and pleasures. Crystallization also testifies to the natural presence of sugars (fructose and glucose), without the addition of syrup.
