What is the best honey powder? To find out, we did a blind taste test. We stirred honey powder from seven brands into smoothies and hot drinks. Which had the best flavor? Dissolved the quickest? Is best for skin care? Here are the best bets for honey powder.

Powdered Honey 101

Honey powder is great for camping, baking or an emergency food supply.

Most of the brands we researched are made of honey and sugar. Unlike liquid honey, powdered honey is easier to stir into tea. It is also great as a substitute for sugar in recipes.

As with most powdered food products, it is best to store powdered honey in a cool, dry place.

Another suggestion: use honey powder to sprinkle over popcorn. Or as a part of your skin care regimen.

After doing a blind taste of several major powdered honey brands, here are the ones that came out on top.

How We Pick Products To Recommend

We often turn to our readers (3 million strong!) to find products to recommend. We ask our parent readers for their favorites and consider their real-world experiences in our recommendations.

When we test a product, we always purchase it with our own monies. We do not take free samples, as we believe that compromises our independence.

We also fact check manufacturer information with our own measurements. If a maker claims a product weighs X pounds, we will weigh it to make sure. If the battery life is supposed to be six hours, we will see how it stands up in the real world.

In some cases, we will do interviews with experts in the field to get additional feedback on products.

To get hands-on time with products, we regularly meet one-on-one with gear companies and even tour manufacturing facilities. (When we do this, we pay our own travel expenses).

Why Trust Us

We’ve been rating and reviewing products for the home and families since 1994. We do extensive research, evaluating products with an eye toward quality, ease of use and affordability.

We make our living from affiliate commissions, but we always recommend what we think are the best bets for our readers (not the ones that are the most expensive). We are always looking for products that offer the best bang for the buck.

Our independence is a key reason why we have been doing this so long. As we mentioned above, when we purchase a product for hands-on testing, we do so with our own money.

Here’s another key point: we don’t take money from the brands we review. No free samples, no sponsors, no “partnerships.” Our work is 100% reader-supported!
