What is Creamed Honey? 🍯✨
​If you’ve ever had liquid honey crystallize into a gritty, hard mess in your cupboard, you know how frustrating it can be. But what if you could control that crystallization to create something incredibly smooth, thick, and perfectly spreadable? Welcome to Creamed Honey (also known as whipped or spun honey)!
​Creamed honey isn't a chemical mix, and it doesn't contain any dairy. It is a 100% natural physical modification of pure honey. By guiding the natural crystallization process, we create billions of microscopic crystals instead of large, crunchy ones.
​How It’s Made (The Dyce Method):
​🌾 The "Seed" Introduction: We add a "seed" of previously finished, ultra-smooth creamed honey into liquid honey at a precise 1:10 ratio (10%).
​🌀 Slow, Gentle Mixing: The mixture is quietly churned at low speeds over a few days. This encourages the new crystals to copy the tiny, smooth pattern of the seed.
​🫙 Jarring: The smooth, velvety mixture is poured into jars while it’s still flowing.
​❄️ Cool Conditioning: The jars are stored at a cool temperature of 12–14°C (53–57°F) for a few weeks to set completely.
​The result? A rich, velvety honey spread that sits beautifully on toast, biscuits, or a spoon without ever dripping! 🍞🍯

Like, share and follow on the original post/page! The drawing will happen next week!

When I first started this page, I’ll be honest—it wasn't really meant to "promote a business." It was mostly just a practical way for me to coordinate and sell package bees every spring. For a long time, we didn't push for growth, chase algorithms, or try to build an audience.
But after 10 years of just doing our thing, we looked up and realized we finally crossed 1,000 followers. 🎉
To some people, that might seem small, but to us, it means the world. Over the last decade, this page has evolved from a simple package-bee coordinator into a community of people who love our local, artisanal honey just as much as we do. Our focus is shifting, and we are incredibly excited to bring you along for the next chapter of Platte Valley Honey Company.
To show our appreciation for getting us to this milestone, we are doing our first-ever giveaway! 🍯👇
One lucky follower is going to win the very first batch of our brand-new lineup: three 1/2 pint jars of our creamed honey, including our Classic Original, Cinnamon made with organic Saigon Cinnamon and Strawberry, made with 100% organic freeze dried strawberries.

How to Enter:

2 SHARE this post to your feed.
3 Make sure you are FOLLOWING our page.
(Winner will be drawn randomly and announced next week!)
P.S. This is just the beginning. Keep your eyes peeled over the next few weeks—we’ll be hosting another giveaway soon to announce the official launch of a stunning new line of premium, handcrafted beeswax-based products created by Dalcy.
Thank you all for the last 10 years, and here’s to the next chapter! 🐝✨

There is nothing quite like the smell of melting beeswax in the shop. 🪵🐝

This batch just finished its first run through the strainer. It still needs one more melt and a pass through a fine mesh filter to get those final impurities out, but it's looking great.

Once it’s clean and poured, it’s all yours, Dalcy! What are we making first? 👇

🐝 Big Upgrade in the Honey House! 🐝
For years, we’ve always sold our raw beeswax in bulk without ever rendering it down ourselves. It was easy, but we knew we were missing out on the fun part.
This year, we decided it was time for a change! We invested in a brand new wax melter from Thorne MFG out of Wisconsin so we can handle the entire process right here at home.
✨
Now that we can process our own gold, Dalcy is getting ready to work her magic. She’ll be using the gorgeous, clean wax that comes from this tank to create all kinds of amazing homemade beeswax products—including candles! 🕯️✨
We are so excited to show you what she comes up with. Stay tuned for updates! I’ll post pics of the nice clean finished wax tomorrow!
