This one is not an infusion at all — it is the hive itself, kept whole. A square of natural comb, cut the day the frame comes out, slid into a jar and drowned gently in its own honey. Nothing is added and nothing is taken away; the wax cells still hold the honey the bees sealed themselves.
The home method
A small home jar, the way we would tell a friend to make it. Our own batches follow the same idea — with a few stubborn habits we keep to ourselves.
You need
- 1 wide-mouthed glass jar, clean and dry
- 1 square of fresh raw honeycomb, cut to fit
- Enough raw honey to cover it
The way
- Cut the comb with a clean dry knife, in one confident stroke.
- Slide it down the side of the jar so the cells face outward.
- Pour honey slowly down the opposite side until the comb is fully covered.
- Close the lid. It is ready the same day — spoon out comb and honey together onto warm toast.
One rule: The comb is entirely edible — the wax softens on warm bread. This is honey the way it exists inside the hive.
Or let us do the waiting — we make a small batch each season. This jar reaches the shop when we open.
