Abstract
A process for producing an infused honey composition having a moisture content of 15% to 19% w/w is described. The process generally includes adding an infusing agent to honey to form an infused honey composition. The honey may be dried prior to addition of the infusing agent, after addition of the infusing agent, or both before and after addition of the infusing agent. The infusing agents are generally not-from-concentrate components of a plant including an extract or juice, fruit, seeds, skin, stems, roots, or leaves.
Claims20
An infused honey composition comprising:
- 50.1% to 99.9% w/w of a liquid honey;
- and
- 49.9% to 0.1% w/w of an infusing agent having a moisture content of at least 30% w/w, wherein a final moisture content of the composition is from 15% to 19% w/w.
A process for the production of an infused honey composition, the process comprising:
- providing a liquid honey having an initial moisture content of 15% to 19% w/w;
- dehydrating the liquid honey to form a dried honey having an intermediate moisture content of 10% to 17% w/w;
- adding an infusing agent to the dried honey to form an infused honey composition, wherein the infusing agent has a moisture content of at least 30% w/w;
- and
- dehydrating the infused honey composition to the final moisture content of 15% to 19% w/w.
A process for the production of an infused honey composition, the process comprising:
- providing a liquid honey having an initial moisture content of 10% to 19% w/w;
- and
- adding an infusing agent to form an infused honey composition, wherein the infusing agent has a moisture content of at least 30% w/w,
- wherein the infused honey composition has a final moisture content of 15% to 19% w/w.
