How to Store Honey Soaked Nuts (and Why Honey Crystallises)

Honey soaked nuts are easy to look after. A few simple habits keep every jar tasting its best.

Storage tips

  • Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.
  • Do not refrigerate, as cold speeds up crystallisation.
  • Always use a clean, dry spoon, and close the lid tightly after use.
  • Stir gently before serving so the nuts and honey are evenly mixed.

Why does honey crystallise?

Crystallisation is a natural process in honey. Over time, the sugars in honey can form crystals, especially in cooler weather. It does not mean the honey has gone bad, and the texture simply becomes thicker or grainier.

How to soften crystallised honey

Place the sealed jar in a bowl of warm water for a few minutes, then stir gently. Avoid very hot water, which can affect the flavour of honey.

Who should avoid honey?

Honey is not recommended for infants below one year. Our nut products also contain tree nuts, so they are not suitable for anyone with a nut allergy.
