Fain's Peach Honey Butter

Peaches:

Peach blossoms herald an early Spring and a rich bounty to come.

Late June peaches fulfill the promise of the blossoms.

Only top quality, locally grown Texas peaches are used in Fain's Peach Honey Butter.

Cremed honey, also known as whipped honey, honey butter, creamed honey, or spun honey, is simply finely crystallized honey that spreads like butter at ordinary room temperature. Unlike liquid honey, it doesn’t drip. Cremed honey is what forms the basis of all Fain’s flavored honey spreads.

Nearly all honey will eventually crystallize. The crystals are typically large resulting in a gritty texture that is not especially pleasing to the palette and is also not easy to spread. Many people are alarmed when they see liquid honey on their shelf do this (see right picture) and assume that the honey has “gone bad”. Gently warming the honey will restore its liquid state. Just think of the three states of water (ice, liquid, and steam). They are all still water. And so it is with crystallized honey… it’s still honey.
