Shout out to Deer Creek Apiaries !!
We bought chocolate flavor and regular flavor honey cream. They asked us to settle the score and set the records straight on which one is better.
Initial taste test: standard flavor honey - smoother, lighter flavor, and reminisce of Texas Roadhouse famous honey butter rolls. Love it. Chocolate tasted like the world's best tootsie roll 💜.
Further testing had to be done, I said. I needed to make sure the research was conducted properly to give a solid, objective answer.
The results are as follows:
•Baking into croissants: CHOCOLATE ALL THE WAY!!!!!
•Hot drinks (coffee, teas, hot cocoa, etc): chocolate -
Better blended flavor, added just a hint of sweetness to the drinks' palette without overpowering, and reduced the need to add dairy to smooth out bitterness.
•Cold drinks (iced coffee, iced tea, smoothies, etc): regular honey flavor - added a thickness and sweet homemade mouth feel to the drinks and blends well with berries and bananas.
Overall preferences:
•Hot drinks and desserts: Chocolate honey cream
•Cold drinks and plain breads: Regular honey cream
Which one is better??
Guys, don't make me choose one to exclude the other. I love these little jars of sweet goodness equally for different specialties!
If anyone ever has a chance to order honey products from this small business, DO IT!!!!! Their customer service is as sweet and at home as the honey they serve. Love it! 5 stars for great products, great service, and fair prices!
