Types Of Honey To Put In A Gift Basket

Looking for something to spice up a food basket a little, try adding a few jars of specialty honey. Honey can turn a ordinary gift basket into a mouth watering gift.

Making a loaf of bread and a few food items to put in a gift basket is a traditional gift. One that I have always loved and found it fitted my budget wonderful. My favorite food basket is a cornbread basket with different types of honey in it to try with the cornbread. I also like making chocolate muffins and dark chocolate bread paired with Hawaii Lava Honey.

Honey can come in different forms. When packing a Honey gift basket it can be fun to include a couple different forms to create variety in the basket.

Comb Honey: This is when the honey comb is included in the jar of honey. The Comb is totally edible and can be a very eye catching piece in a honey gift basket. Many will use chunks of honey to sweeten hot tea or cut up to pair with specialty cheese.

Chunk Honey: This is a combination between a regular jar of honey and a jar of honey comb. Instead of just a honey cob it has junks of honey. Just as the honey comb this is perfect to pair with hot beverages. Thick sour dough bread would also go good with this type of honey.

Liquid Honey: This type of honey is what most of us buy in the supermarket. It is running and comes in bottles to easily pour in a cup of tea or spread on a muffin.

Creamed or Whipped Honey: This type of honey is crystallized and whipped to provide a product with texture similar to butter.

Flavoured Honey: When a honey says it is flavored it could be flavored by where the honeys get their nectar or they could have added fruit flavoring to it. It is important to read the labels to understand where you honey is coming from.

Honey is a staple in many gift baskets with homemade food and other types of food because it can make even the ordinary look dazzling. Choose a honey that compliments the other things you are putting in a gift basket.

This package is a great bargain to get lots of types honey at once. You can buy the honey to put in many honey gift baskets or in one large gift basket. The honey is such a great gift the box itself full of honey could be wrapped as a wonderful gift.
