Made from 100% pure beeswax, our candles contain no added colours or scents. Ideal for people with scent allergies, these candles can be used by everyone as natural air purifiers. While tapers and tealights are usually available year-round, the largest variety of candles can be found in the fall months and at the Christmas sales.

We also carry Beeswax blocks for a wide variety of purposes (see below).

Beeswax Blocks

Approximately 1 oz each – just the right size for when you need just a little bit of beeswax. Some of the many uses for Beeswax are:

• Use as a wax to lubricate wooden sashes
• Coat the hemp used on bagpipe joints and turning slides
• Use to flux molten lead when casting bullets
• Used by bow hunters as archery wax
• As a coating for sewing threads (strengthens prevents catches or snags)
• Melt in a tart burner to enjoy the wonderful aroma!

Cream:

• ½ c butter (room temp – then no mixer is needed!)
• 1 c crunchy peanut butter
• ½ c sugar
• ½ c brown sugar

Once above is smooth, stir in:

• 1 c liquid honey
• 2 eggs, beaten

In separate bowl: combine, whisk/sift to mix:

• 2 ½ c flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• ½ teaspoon baking soda
• ½ teaspoon salt

Add dry to wet. Place plastic wrap over dough and chill for several hours (I normally whip the dough up and let chill overnight). Drop by teaspoons on cookie sheet, crisscross with fork dipped in flour.

Bake at 375 degrees for 8-10 minutes, depending on oven.

Note: Keep dough in fridge when not working on it – makes it very easy for handling.

Enjoy!

About Our Sweet Products…

All of our jams, jellies and other products are sweetened with honey only. Therefore, they contain a higher fruit volume than similar products that are sweetened with sugar – a difference you can really taste! As we use as much local produce as possible, some of our jams, jellies, and pickles are only available when the produce is in season and until supplies last. Most of our jams are soft-set, which make them not only great for spreads, but also double as sauces.

Honey crystallizes two ways – it either becomes very granular and coarse or it becomes smooth and oh so spreadable. Our creamed honey is the smooth and spreadable variety and will not change texture over time. It will not drip from a spoon and stores well at room temperature. It can be gently warmed for a more spreadable consistency if too hard or put in the fridge to harden should it be too soft.

Creamed honey is a great altenative to creamed spreads as it is fat free.

Our honey comes from the wildflowers and blueberry blossoms of Denver, Guysborough County, Nova Scotia. Generally, it is a mild tasting honey due to the flower sources that are available. All of our honey is unpasturized, which means that all of the natural occurring health benefits are not destroyed.

About Freezing Liquid Honey

Many people do not realize that you can freeze liquid honey to prevent crystallization from occurring – especially if you buy in large containers and do not consume it all before it does begin to crystallize (a natural occurrence with honey).

Below are some tips for freezing honey:

Repack your honey into jars or containers that are easier for you to use in the future – after all, you don’t want to keep freezing and thawing your honey because it is too large of a container. The size of the container is entirely up to you.

We all know that honey is sticky and not all that fun to clean up when spilled. Take this into consideration when choosing your storage container. You will want to pick a container with a good seal on it to prevent spills and leaks. Glass is actually a perfect choice for this – the honey will not expand and plastic containers could become dinged or damage when you or your family is looking through your freezer.

Once frozen, honey will keep in the freezer for ever, but after approximately one year – the chance of crystallization occurring does increase.
When you are ready to use your honey, remove from the freezer and let it thaw completely – simply leave it sit at room temperature. It’s my experience that the container will “sweat” when thawing.

Don’t worry, your honey won’t taste any different. Freezing honey does not change or affect the nutritional quality of the honey in any way.

Snacking can be a blessing or a curse when you’re trying to be mindful of your daily diet. Whether you’re going to work, school or just running errands, make a batch of bars at the beginning of the week and package it in individual servings. You’ll never have to reach for candy or cookies in the afternoon because you’ll never be without a delicious snack!

• 1/3 cup pure honey
• 1/4 cup butter, melted
• 3 egg whites
• 1 teaspoon cinnamon
• 1/2 teaspoon almond flavoring
• 3 cups low-fat granola
• 1/2 cup almonds, coarsely chopped
• 3/4 cup dried cherries

Preheat oven to 350°F. Whisk together honey, butter, egg whites, cinnamon and almond flavoring. Stir in granola, almonds and cherries. Spoon granola mixture into 9-inch, nonstick (or well greased) square pan. Using a piece of wax paper, firmly press granola mixture in pan. Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove pan from oven and place on a cooling rack. Cool completely; cut into bars.
