Honey is the nature's gift to mankind. It is a pleasant food item having acquired of special reputation as medicine and as a nutritious food. Honey is a golden coloured syrupy substance made by bees from the nectar of flowers. The quality of honey depends on the prevailing flower blossom. Genuine honey will contain pollen grains, which can be detected under microscope. Glucose, starch, and cane sugar usually adulterate honeys that are available commercially.

Honey is healthier compared to refined sugar since honey has traces of minerals and vitamins to its credit. Honey contains fewer calories and carbohydrates than sugar since it contains water. But when substituting honey for sugar in recipes, due to the high density of honey compared to sugar, substituting honey for sugar by volume rather than by weight would give you more calories. Honey contains sugars in the form of glucose and fructose that gives the sweetness. The clearer the honey the higher the proportion of fructose although, honey will almost always granulate if it is kept long enough. Heating can make it loose. Honey consists of 20% water and about 79% sugar. Honey contains glucose 25- 37%, fructose 34- 43%, sucrose 0.5- 3% maltose5-12%, and 319 kcal per 100 gms.

It was considered "the nectar of the gods" and was poured by the cupbearers of Zeus. This drink possessed wondrous life-giving properties for health, strength, virility, and immortality. It was said that Cupid dipped his arrows in honey to fill the lovers’ heart with sweetness. The ancient Greeks also made little cakes from flour, honey and oil as supplications to their gods.
