Honey…And then some.

Honey truly is a wonder of nature only possible thanks to honeybees who harvest nectar from flowers and process it before storing it in wax cells they make from their own bodies.

As a result, honey has antibacterial properties rich in nutrients and antioxidants, such as riboflavin (supports cell growth, healthy skin, eyes and red blood cells) and copper (supports brain health and immune function).

for centuries, across cultures, honey has been used as a natural remedy for a variety of ailments, from treating coughs to healing wounds.

much of the honey sold in supermarkets today comes from mass-produced enterprises and is often bulked up with sugar syrups to keep costs low. as a result the health benefits of this “superfood” are lost.

with our honey we do not use any bulking agents or sugar syrups. We do not heat our honey and do our extractions manually.

when you buy from “katia’s Local Honey” you can be assured to be buying real honey, sustainably produced, with all the associated health benefits that honey can offer and unlike anything you can find in a supermarket!

why beeswax candles

Most candles are made with soya and paraffin (stemming from crude oil), sometimes even combined with synthetic fragrances, meaning that toxic fumes are released when the candles burn.

pure beeswax candles offer a natural and healthier alternative with the sweet aromas coming from the honey it had been storing and without the soot and toxic fumes.

beeswax candles also offer a longer burning time compared to paraffin or soya candles.
