Vegan alternatives to Honey



I have to admit that I'm not totally strict on this one. I don't ever buy honey but if on an occasion I have eaten something like a cereal that I later find out has honey as an ingredient, I don't get myself all worked up about it.

I believe every day you learn new things and you can only do your best, none of us is perfect.

These are the Vegan alternatives to Honey that I enjoy the most.....

Maple Syrup - who doesn't love this stuff over pancakes? Apparently 80% of this stuff comes from Canadian trees, it's so delicious, just make sure you don't get caught out like I did buying maple flavoured syrup! Depending on the quality, maple syrup can price anywhere between £2 - £10 and upwards.



Agave Nectar - Agave plants are grown in the Americas and the nectar can be fermented to make tequila. This syrup some say is worse than sugar as it is apparently high in fructose but it tastes amazing, so my advice is to not have too much. This one costs around £2.50 for 250ml and is available at most supermarkets.




Bee-free Honey - This little beauty is made from coconut nectar and tastes like a cross between honey and molasses, so has a deeper richer taste than the other two. It is slightly more expensive at £6 for 300ml.




There are many other syrups, like fruit syrups etc but these three are my absolute favourites. 

Have fun covering your pancakes, baking or just making life a little sweeter!
