After receiving my first jar of Waxing Kara Spring Honey, I knew exactly what my first creation would be…scones. However, plain scones just wouldn’t do. For honey this fresh and bright, my scones needed to be light, fruity, and picture perfect.
Waxing Kara Spring Honey comes exclusively from their Chesterhaven Beach Farm on the eastern shore of Maryland. Their bees pollinate meadows of wildflowers, rows of lavender, and forested land to produce a sweet, sunny, floral honey.
