Honey Tips

How Honey Is Created

Honey is created when bees mix plant nectar, a sweet substance secreted by flowers, with their own bee enzymes.

Directions

Beat cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Mix in cream of coconut and honey; then coconut and ginger. Spread filling in crust. Arrange fruit on top of filling. Put preserves in a pan over low heat. Stir frequently, until liquefied. Brush over fruit. Refrigerate until filling is firm (at least 1 hour). Can be prepared 6 hours ahead. Keep refrigerated. Serves 8.
