Crystallized honey is normal!
It is completely normal for honey to crystallize over time. This does not mean that it is expired or that it has lost its quality. On the contrary, this natural transformation is a sign that your honey is authentic and unprocessed .
Why does honey crystallize?
Honey is composed of a natural mixture of sugars and water. Over time, and especially at cooler temperatures, the sugars can separate and form crystals. This phenomenon varies depending on the type of honey and its glucose content.
Is crystallized honey still safe to eat?
Yes! Crystallized honey is completely safe to consume . It retains all its nutritional properties and delicious taste.
Can we receive a pot that has already crystallized?
Yes, it is possible. Depending on the season and the transport or storage conditions, you may receive a jar of honey that has already crystallized . This is perfectly normal and harmless.
How to make it liquid again?
If you prefer runny honey, simply heat it gently :
-
Place the jar of honey in a double boiler over low heat
-
Do not use the microwave and avoid excessively high temperatures, which can alter the qualities of the honey.
👉 Crystallization is simply a guarantee of naturalness , not a defect.
This product is not in our warehouse, so it may take up to 7 days for the manufacturer to deliver it to us. We will then deliver it to you. A slight delay may occur if this product is part of your shipment.
WHY WE USE THIS SHIPPING SYSTEM ONCE A WEEK
WHY WE USE THIS SHIPPING SYSTEM ONCE A WEEK
The reason is simple: that's why we use this shipping system once a week, where products are shipped on Sundays.
If we were to keep all products in large quantities, we would need a very, very, very large warehouse, like a large distribution center. The cost of that would significantly increase our prices.
Instead, we keep limited stock and receive weekly deliveries.
However, not all of our 100+ suppliers deliver at the same time, and not all of them have an accurate inventory system — and that's another story lol.
For this reason, in order to build your package, we have to wait for products from all suppliers. If we already have all the items, your package may be sent faster. It also depends on the volume of orders.
We hope you understand 🙏

Product FAQ
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
WHEN WILL MY ORDER BE SHIPPED?
Orders are processed weekly.
If you place your order before Sunday, it will be processed and shipped on the following Sunday (not the immediate Sunday).
If you order after Sunday, it will be processed and shipped on the following Sunday (i.e., the second Sunday after your order).
WHERE ARE THESE PRODUCTS LOCATED?
All our products are already in Canada, in our warehouse, ready to be shipped. You will not have any customs fees or hidden charges upon delivery.
WHY DO YOU SHIP ONCE A WEEK?
Because we work with several importers and suppliers.
Some products are in limited quantity in our warehouse and we must wait for the missing items to be received.
Since our suppliers do not all deliver on the same day, we consolidate orders and ship once a week to ensure your order is complete.
WHY IS AN ITEM MISSING FROM MY ORDER?
Some of our suppliers do not have a real-time inventory system and do not always notify us when a product is out of stock.
In addition, some received items may have an expiration date that is too soon. We check each product upon receipt and remove those that do not meet our standards.
If an item is missing, it is because we have chosen not to include it in order to guarantee you the best possible quality.
WHY DON'T YOU HAVE A RETURN POLICY?
As these are food products, we cannot accept returns for safety and hygiene reasons.
Once a product has been shipped, we cannot guarantee the storage or handling conditions.
Why has the price of this product increased since my last order?
Our products are purchased in euros, so the exchange rate directly influences our prices.
In addition, transportation and import costs can vary, which can also impact the final price.
