I think I read somewhere that some honey is derived from hives near strawberries or other plants, do you know of any "flavored" honeys or do you sell any like I am describing?
Specialty honeys are made when a particular flower is in bloom, and is the dominant flower in the area. New honey supers are placed on the hives at the beginning of the honeyflow, and removed and harvested immediately after the honeyflow. We harvest our honey once a year...usually Labor Day weekend. So our honey is a mix of every thing growing in our area all year long.

If you are ordering a box of honey caramels as a gift, let us know and we will tie a red or green ribbon around the box.
We have been making things every day last week and again this week. This week we should be able to make the order the day it comes in, and ship it out the next.
This week we have honey toffee available. It comes in a 1/4 lbs. box and costs $8. The toffee is covered with a layer of milk chocolate, then sprinkled with chopped roasted almonds on top. Crunchy at first then chewy at the end. A few of you received some samples of it in some of the orders last week...if you care to write a review of it...

Just put in a late Christmas order with Bees Bros. to send caramels to a bunch of friends and family. They completed the orders in a rush to get everything out over the weekend so it'd all make it to their destinations on time [crossing my fingers]. Thanks Bees Bros. Great doing business with them, as always.

Bees Bros has been a big part of my christmas shopping this year, and service has been superb as usual. Over 50% of my Christmas shopping has been paid for in Bitcoin this year, and Bees Bros was a big part of that If anyone is going to place an order, I highly recommend the Lip Balm. It's only $3, tastes like rubbing honey on your lips, but instead of being sticky its surprisingly moisturizing. After I received my first box, I had to order some more, because I'm sure my female friends will love these.

Thanks guys and all the others who have placed orders. We were not expecting the number of orders we received in the past couple weeks, but got all of them out rather quickly. Its quite a boost of confidence when repeat customers place large orders for much of there Christmas gifts. Thanks for trusting us.
This next month we will turn some attention on obtaining a few more hives and equipment... and learning more about cryptography.

How did I not know about this sooner? I ordered a pound of assorted caramels. I'm thinking I'll like the salted and raspberry the best, but we'll see.
I like the Bitpay checkout process. It's pretty slick.
"Don't tread on bees"... haha :-). That'd be an awesome sticker to throw in the box.
Thanks, Teran

Just got them finished and packaged. It will ship tomorrow. It might even get there before Christmas. We are going to make some T-shirts, and are debating within the family to have it say "Don't tread on bees" or Don't tread on BTCees"

I just got the caramels today! I'm really impressed that they came before Christmas, even though I ordered them so late. And I actually wasn't ordering them as a present, more for my family. But I'm very impressed that you got them out the door this late into the holidays. I ordered an assorted 1/4lb pack. I have to say, these are the best caramels I've ever had. Each of the varieties is well worth ordering and trying. They taste so much better than the typical candy caramels you get at the store. And probably are much healthier, too. Aside from half a motorcycle, probably the best purchase I've ever made with Bitcoin :-). I'll definitely be ordering more from time-to-time. We are going to make some T-shirts, and are debating within the family to have it say "Don't tread on bees" or Don't tread on BTCees"
That would be awesome! I think shirts both with either "bees" or " BTCees" could sell well. On that note, how many of your purchases are fiat, versus Bitcoin? I'm super impressed with the caramels and how quickly you guys shipped them off. Thanks so much, Teran PS: I put a link to Bees Brothers in the Trade section on the Bitcoin wiki: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Trade

That's right, though I can't decide which half. I paid for the other half in US dollars. Both halves were connected.

Small bag of Caramels (6) $3 It seems that you do not sell these in the bitcoin store section of your website? Infact, it seems they aren't present on your website at all, which is a shame tbh.

Thanks so much, Teran PS: I put a link to Bees Brothers in the Trade section on the Bitcoin wiki: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/TradeWe had a rush order that night, so we included yours too. I thought they would get to you the day after Christmas, but USPS was on the ball this week. Putting a link on the Bitcoin Wiki Trade site was something we were going to do after things slowed down in January. Thanks for doing that.
