Howard Products 800.266.9545 www.howardproducts.com Connoisseurs love this honey specialty from the white blossoms of the enchanting leatherwood tree, only found in the Tasmanian rainforests. The texture is silky soft; the aroma at first powerful and then exotic flowery notes slowly unfold. Liaising with beekeepers in faraway countries has been a long tradition in the Breitsamer family. A particularly loyal collab- oration connects them with the Tasmanian Honey Company, which provides them with this exquisite honey rarity exclusively. These honeys have an exceptional char- acter among honeys worldwide. They are a reflection of a unique natural heritage, many parts of which now are under the protection of UNESCO. The Tasmanian Honey Company bottles and seals their honey on location with the utmost care. The Tasmanian Honey Company, founded by a beekeeper (Julian) in 1978, has always had a marked passion for Tas- mania, whose wild forests are known for the honey they produce. The Tasmanian Honey Company recipe for success is its passion for bees, for nature and for its wonderful, rare leatherwood honey. The company considers it to be a distillate of pure wilderness. Julian's team takes complete care of their own colonies of bees by themselves, thus en- abling them to bottle their wild honey, from a pure environment, gently and directly. With a flowery flavor, decora- tive jar and original product, bottled di- rectly in Tasmania, Breitsamer Original Tasmanian Leatherwood Honey will be available this summer.

Dave's Gourmet www.davesgourmet.com Dave's Creamy Hot Sauces With its Maine spin on a classic Dutch snack, Stonewall Kitchen's new Blueberry Honey Waffle Cookies were inspired by the stroopwafel, a sandwich cookie from the Netherlands that traditionally features two thin, waffle-like wafers and a caramel filling. This unique version is sweetly held together with a syrup made from honey and blueberries, infusing New England fla- vor into every bite. It's the third waffle cookie variety from Stonewall Kitchen to hit shelves, joining Cocoa Sea Salt Caramel Waffle Cookies and Maple Brown Butter Waffle Cookies. Simple yet delectable, they can be en- joyed any time of day as a crisp, satisfying morsel straight out of the wrap- per – just the thing for on- the-go eating. Or, as in the Dutch stroop- wafel tradition, customers may choose to warm one gently over a hot beverage for an extra-gooey treat.
