About this Honey

Produced in agricultural regions (like Central California) where carrots are grown for seed. The honey is dark amber and crystallizes rock-hard very quickly. It has a strong, robust flavor that is earthy and slightly savory, distinct from the vegetable itself. It is a favorite for baking spice cakes and muffins.
