About LadyBug Hot Honey
What is LadyBug Hot Honey?
Small-batch honey infused with real peppers for a balanced sweet-heat finish. It’s versatile—pizza, wings, breakfast sandwiches, cheese boards, desserts, and cocktails all love it.
Tagline: Sweet heat, done right.
Where should I start—Mild or XHOT?
Mild: friendly warmth with rich honey character. XHOT: bigger, pepper-forward kick while keeping the honey flavor upfront.
Ingredients & Allergens
What’s inside?
Real honey, natural pepper infusions, and spices. No corn syrup. No artificial flavors.
Is it gluten-free and allergen friendly?
Honey is naturally gluten-free, and we don’t add gluten ingredients. Produced without nuts, dairy, or soy. Always check the label for the most current info.
Heat Levels
How spicy is it?
Mild: sweet upfront, gentle tingle on the finish. XHOT: brighter, bolder burn that still lets the honey shine.
Storage & Shelf Life
How do I store it? Does it expire?
Keep at room temperature with the cap sealed. Honey naturally lasts a long time. If it thickens or crystallizes, warm the bottle in a bowl of warm (not boiling) water for a few minutes.
Why did my honey crystallize?
That’s natural with real honey. Gentle warming returns it to a smooth, pourable flow.
