Stingless Bee Natural Honey

After reading the health benefits of the stingless bees honey (Madu Kelulut), I told my better half that I want to buy a bottle for my father and mum to try,  he has to whatsapp the farm owner on Saturday night to check whether they are opened for business on Sunday.  I am very happy that his reply is Yes.  My father is a stroke patient since 12 years ago and has been having lungs infections very frequently.

I am glad that my mum tagged along to see the stingless bee farm. The owner is so kind to let us try the honey and patiently explained to us on the goodness of this honey.  

I bought a bottle of 530gm honey to share with my parents.  This is the packaging and a natural product produced by the hard working stingless bees that can only fly the furthest 3km from their nests / hives.

I also bought a small bottle of ginger powder, produced locally as well.  It can be mixed with the honey drink,  Ginger possesses anti cancer properties.  

besides the Air Mata Pengantin flower (picture in my last post), I also sighted this type of flower in the Stingless Bee farm, anyone know what's the name of this flower ?  

Stingless Bee Honey Farm (Madu Kelulut)

Stingless Bees honey farming has becoming popular in Malaysia, the honey harvested from stingless beehives is believed to contain much higher antioxidant than the regular honey, thus makes it a Superfood.

My better half has visited a local stingless bee farm a couple of days back.  He has taken some photos and also video to share the knowledge with me.  We have been taking honey all this while but honestly, I do not have a clue how the bees got the honey from.  I now learned that stingless bee is actually not poisonous. 

this stingless bees farm is set up with 50 logs.  They are also selling the logs and also the plants that make the bees happy (the bees will work hard to bring in more honey if they are happy).

The Stingless Bees' favourite flower here is the Air Mata Pengantin (The bride's tears)

this is how the propolis / beehives look like, the honey is being stored there.

Sweet heart ice cream

2 scoops of vanilla, chocolate and strawberry flavour ice cream with bee pollen granules, tiny little round and heart shape sprinkles and some flax seed oil.

This is the little heart shape gift container from our cousin 's wedding that can be converted into a ice cream serving cup which was mentioned in my previous post. This little serving cup is only good enough for little kids. Crystal asked for 2 servings as it was too little ice cream for her.
