Christmas edition of the Helt honey, to be ordered online, and you can also find it at the wonderful food market Torvehallerne in Copenhagen. “Helt was founded in 2012 by Anthony Lee, a passionate beekeeper and honey lover. Anthony had moved to Denmark four years earlier, after meeting a Danish girl and dropping everything in England to head over the water to be with her. At the time of moving, there were no jobs for Anthony because he couldn’t speak Danish. So he sat around for a while thinking it over, and eventually decided that beekeeping might be for him. Helt is hand-crafted Danish honey infused with love for bees and nature. That’s what Helt is all about really. Working the precious honey in small batches is the traditional and cosy way to do things.”

“Smakshonning is a new range of honey with added flavor (hazelnut, raspberry and thyme) from Honningcentralen, Norway’s leading honey producer. The idea was to create a chemistry inspired bottle, to emphasize the applicability of honey within gastronomy. In addition to the three 350g main bottles, a gift set with a portion sized bottle of each flavour was created. The gift set bottles had a cork with the classic honey stick attached to it, resembling pipette found in chemistry labs.” Via The Dieline

One more project from the talented agency Anagrama from Mexico. “Doce Cielos is a brand specializing in traditional handcrafted honey-based products. Their mission is to encourage the recognition and consumption of these native Mexican apiculture products, emphasizing the product’s richness in flavor, texture, color and benefits to personal health.

The packaging lines make allusion to traditional handcrafted Mexican paintings and art pieces. Our proposal achieves a sophisticated link between the Mexican handcrafts heritage and the honey’s sweet traditional essence.”

Designed by Beza Project ” Milk & Honey is a set designed for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for polish presidency in European Union. The set consist of the honey, mug, honey spoon and recipe for preparing a traditional drink: milk with honey. The drink itself has a delicate taste and health-giving properties – it strengthens the heart and supports the body in its fight against cold and stress. The design of the set has been inspired by motifs originating from Polish culture and tradition. The shape of the china mug resembles a traditional milk can and the spoon is shaped like the quill pen of a poet who describes the land flowing with milk and honey.”
