🧊 Storage
➡️ Before opening: store in a dry place at room temperature (max. approx. 25 °C).
➡️ After opening: close the lid; there’s no need to keep the honey in the fridge — the cold can cause crystallisation, which is a natural process and does not mean a reduction in quality.
🧠 Summary
Medokomerc Forest Honey 250 g is natural forest honey – a dark, aromatic variety offering a rich flavour and a natural sweetener with a high content of simple sugars. It’s ideal for pastries, drinks, desserts and healthy breakfasts as a tasty and nutritious alternative to sugar.
💡 Tip: If the honey crystallises, you can gently warm it in a bain-marie (max. ~50 °C) to return it to a liquid state — this won’t damage its natural properties.
