Honey Pops Story: A Journey to Pure Sweetness

Have you ever looked at the ingredient list on your favorite candy and needed a science degree to understand it? That's exactly what happened to us.

We've always loved honey lollipops, but when we examined what was actually in the ones from stores, we were disappointed. Most contained corn syrup, artificial flavors, and preservatives with unpronounceable names. Many used only a trace of honey, diluted with cheaper syrups just to claim "honey flavor."

That's when we decided to create something different. Something pure. Something genuine.

The Quest for the Perfect Honey Pop

Armed with a love for real honey and a dream of creating the perfect lollipop, we set out on our journey. We worked day and night, testing formula after formula. We experimented with different types of honey, various ratios, and different processes.

Most commercial candy makers told us it couldn't be done—that we needed those additives and fillers for "stability" and "shelf life." We almost gave up...

Then we had an idea: What if simple is better?

What if we just used two ingredients: non-GMO cane sugar and pure, locally-sourced honey? No corn syrup. No additives. No compromises.

It wasn't easy. Without fillers, the process had to be perfect. The temperature, the timing, the cooling—everything had to be precisely controlled. But after countless test batches and refinements, we nailed it.

From Local Hives to Your Hands

Our honey comes from the sun-drenched hills of Temecula Valley and its surrounding foothills in Southern California. We partner with local beekeepers who practice sustainable beekeeping, ensuring the honey we use is:

  • 100% Pure - Never diluted or blended with cheaper varieties
  • Locally Sourced - Supporting California beekeepers and reducing our carbon footprint
  • Minimally Processed - Preserving the natural enzymes and flavors of the honey
  • Small Batch - Each batch is carefully handcrafted in our Los Angeles kitchen
