Detailed Product Description

Honey has broad consumer appeal as natural sweeteners and flavorings. As food products, Honey also provides many other essential attributes such as color, aroma, browning, texture, improved moisture retention, and extended keeping quality. Now honey powder can be used in areas where process or products constructions previously prevent the use of liquid honey. Our honey powder products retain all these desirable properties while eliminating the flavor and color variability, handing difficulties, and storage problems inherent with their liquid counterparts. These products have been designed not only for use in general formulation where convenience is desired, but also fir use in product applications where a dry ingredient is necessary. A special patented process makes our honey powder. High quality liquid material are dried on wheat starch carrier and converted to free flowing powders. The use of wheat starch makes the powder less hygroscopic and more resistant to caking in storage than material dried with other carriers. As starch gelatinized during baking, it also increase absorption and provides thickening in many food products. When using the honey powder, it is important to note they should generally be incorporated with other dry ingredients rather than separately reconstituted with water.

We export natural honey, processed honey, and honey powder. Currently these products are mainly for markets in the United States, Canada and Europe. Honey powder is a high-tech domestic pioneering new products. With strict implement of modern management system, our company has achieved the ISO9001:2000 and HACCP certificates. We remain committed to the basics: excellence in quality, service and value.
