The law, regulations etc on labels is fair enough, we understand that, and if we ever get to the dizzy heights of selling COMMERCIALLY, then we will abide by these regulations!

I understand the rest of what you said, I thought the original labels were yours, but anyhow the regulations do not only apply to selling honey "commercially" - if you sell honey, the regulations apply to you. Even if you donate a jar to a charity tombola, the labelling regulations apply.

Just FYI

Much obliged for that information, we shall use it accordingly.

Yet it is possible to find honey for sale with little more info than "Honey" on a craft type label. No weight, no country of origin, no best before.
Go figure.

It is also possible to see people going down the motorway at 100mph, and to see people murdering old ladies, so not sure what your point is?

you can come an watch me doing a 100mph if you like, but if i murder old ladies I prefer privacy

 

[Swarm]

Oh? LOL
Try another sensible analogy maybe?

well the fine is bigger for selling incorrectly labeled honey

Does it need to be labeled ,well there are circumstances then not,


direct sales from the garden gate to the buyer all you need is a sign saying Honey, Weight of product and price and you still risk trading standard jobs worth getting OTT as theexemption is not well know or desribed in the regs but other sales are going to fall foul of the labeling laws

i recently bought 100 labels from a beekeeping supplier that were illegal under the regualtion as they said 340 gms not 340 g, i only use them on over the gate sales

otherwise it is lot number on security tab and proper printed labelsip,

 

[Carefulbee]

Double aa, thats right!
