Editor's Choice: Honey Ridge Farms

It’s that time of year for me and I’m sure many of you. We are in the doldrums of winter and everything has become repetitious. Into this setting a little bit of sunshine arrived. Actually it was a sample of Honey Ridge Farm’s Lemon Honey Crème (www.honeyridgefarms.com). Honey and lemon sounded like a winning combination, so I took it home. The first sample was Sunday morning on some waffles. The tangy lemon taste is sweetened just a little by the honey for a rich smooth taste. I’m sure it would be a good spread on breakfast breads as well. I next tried it with some cheese, as the label suggested. The layers of flavors again proved to be a tasty combination. The final taste was last night with some cooked green beans.

Once again, the crème enlivened an ordinary dish. This product would be great as part of a breakfast basket or any breads and spreads basket. It would also be at home in a cheese and spreads basket. And of course, it would make a great gift for a friend who’s bored with winter and longing for spring.
