One of the largest European organic food producers, Narayan Foods, is preparing to launch the world’s first plant-based honey in select European countries early in 2023.
Narayan’s honey is the first honey alternative to hit the EU market that doesn't include processed syrup or concentrates but still produces an indistinguishable taste and texture of bee-made honey.
The bee-free honey is developed by award-winning Californian food technology company MeliBio, which is partnering with Narayan Foods.
Unique in design, Narayan’s honey possesses the same qualities as honey from bees – it boosts immunity and offers bioactive and prebiotic properties.
The first plant-based honey with the real taste and nutritional profile of bee-made honey is a plant-based solution to the alarming negative impact the bee-made honey industry has on biodiversity.
Existing honey production not only endangers bees, but also a lot of current shelf-ready products as they may contain toxins, pesticides, and antibiotics.
Narayan’s bee-free honey proposes a vegan-friendly alternative, made with only clean-label ingredients, free from seasonal volatility and pesticides.
It contains some of the same antioxidants as in bee-made honey and is free from clostridium bacteria, making it safe for new moms and babies.
It applies to a variety of uses – from being a more sustainable industry sweetener to being used as a food flavouring, or even finding a spot in cosmetics and healthcare.
Narayan is now utilising novel technologies to bring the newest plant-based innovation to every European home while allowing bees a well-deserved rest.
With the first plant-based honey, Narayan aims to meet the ever-growing global demand for quality honey through bee-friendly processes.
Europe’s first plant-based honey will be made in high production facilities in Europe, eliminating seasonal honey production.
With years of experience, Narayan has designed a scalable system for bringing healthy and tasty foods to the market.
Narayan produces over 250 products that are certified vegan and organic, under private labels, available in more than 75,000 stores and more than 30 markets across Europe.
Narayan’s first plant-based honey will be ready to hit the shelves in early January 2023.

"“honey” means the natural sweet substance produced by Apis mellifera bees" who want to be first to spot a jar and tell trading standards?

 

[MillMeadow]

I admire inovation but it worries me that people devote their time and resources to something like this.
Sounds more energy intensive than natural honey but good luck to them, I hope it turns them a profit.

 

[jenkinsbrynmair]

well doesn't almost all honey come from plants? flowering plants?

They shouldn’t be allowed to get that far. The description shouldn’t hit the shelves. Good luck to them but don’t call it honey of any kind.

Indeed. I feel it should be sold as "Honey Substitute"

Yet again, as long there are sheep, there will be wool..

No worries, there is wool plant based.. Just show me the moneeey..

If you feed your bees sugar syrup the stores are still 'honey'
Just not made with nectar.
Just ask your supermarket manager

It won't be local, its constructed in a laboratory/factory, driven many miles, driven to the shop for the gullible to purchase who drove to the shop to buy it. Then of course there is the electricity ................................ but it will be called organic and sustainable and the "company will have the the money to prove it".

And it will save the bees

but most of them already buy Manooky!

Technically all honey is plant based. it's just the way it's processed that's different.

 

[B_north]

it boosts immunity and offers bioactive and prebiotic properties.

Of course it does *sarc* throw in sustainable and toxins and you have the needed selling points for the gullible.

I would like to see an ingredients list.

There's one born every minute

Sucrose syrup......

 

[Moobee]

Technically all honey is plant based. it's just the way it's processed that's different.

It does have to be processed via bees to be labelled as honey though.....

meeeeeeee!

I had a conversation with a couple recently. Both their daughters are vegan and told them that beekeepers routinely kill their bees every year. It's a lack of animal fat that will rot your brain like that. Very sad.
