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

In a small bowl mix together cheese, honey and pecans. Refrigerate until ready to use.
Remove crusts of raisin bread, discard. Cut bread diagonally into 4 triangles. Spread a spoonful of cheese mixture on breads and crackers. Top with a slice of strawberry or 1/2 grape. Arrange on a platter. Tuck a few small parsley sprigs amongst sandwiches for garnish.
