Capilano Pure Honey 1 kg Squeeze
The name comes from Vancouver. Honey does not. Capilano Pure Honey is a 1 kg squeeze of eucalypt and ground flora. Its ingredients say 100% pure Australian honey.
Brothers Tim and Bert Smith started the brand in 1953. Hive and Wellness Australia owns it now, and more than 600 Australian beekeeping families supply the honey. Packing sits in Richlands, Maryborough and Bayswater.
They say honey tastes twice as sweet as sugar, so you use less. This blend is described as smooth and balanced. Store the bottle at room temperature. Woolworths and Coles sell it in Australia.
