What does it mean when honey thickens or crystallizes?

When honey thickens, that is, when it crystallizes, it undergoes a completely natural process. Pure honey is a dense solution of natural sugars, primarily fructose and glucose, comprising roughly 70%, with less than 20% water. This high concentration of sugars makes natural honey unstable and prone to crystallization. Glucose, being less soluble than fructose, tends to separate from the water and form microscopic crystals. Over time, these crystals multiply and spread throughout the honey, giving it a more granulated texture.The rate at which honey crystallizes depends on several factors, including the ratio of fructose to glucose, the specific variety of honey, and the conditions in which it is stored. Thus, the crystallization of honey is entirely natural and does not affect its quality. Find here: Authentic Honey from Mount Athos
