Bee my Honey

Valentine's Day falls just after National Honey Week and to celebrate, The Honey Association has lovingly put together some romantic facts about honey:

• In some cultures, honey is used as part of the wedding ceremony. For example, a hindu wedding will sometimes involve placing a bowl of honey in the presence of the bride and groom and as the groom kisses the bride, he says: "honey, this is honey, the speech of thy tongue is honey, in my mouth lives the honey of the bee, in my teeth lives peace".

• Make your 'honey' feel special by cooking a delicious romantic Valentine meal. What about Bacon with Sweet Potato and Honey Mash followed by a wonderful Lemon and Honey Mousse with a Strawberry Sauce. One taste and he or she will make a beeline for you!
