Honeybee Edibles launches new blue raspberry gumdrops
The St. Louis-based brand features chef Dave Owens as director of culinary
There’s no such thing as a blue raspberry, yet the flavor has been pervasive for decades in everything from candy to slushies and probably a lot in between.
St. Louis-based Honeybee Edibles has really upped the ante for the ever-popular flavor combination with its new pâte de fruit gumdrops made with the puree of blueberries and raspberries, which debuted in Missouri dispensaries in mid-September. The inclusion of real fruit gives the edibles a deep purple hue, rather than the artificial, electric-blue color we’re used to seeing in many blue raspberry products. Honeybee now offers a dozen different flavors of gumdrops, along with nine flavors of high-quality chocolate bars (the peanut butter and jelly is our new favorite infused chocolate).
Acclaimed chef Dave Owens, current Honeybee Edibles director of culinary and former head chocolatier for Bissinger’s, has put his skills to work for yet another delectable flavor of Honeybee Edibles, and we’re here to tell you they’re not only delicious with plenty of fruity sweetness and just a hint of tang, but the buzz they impart from high-quality distillate is top-notch. And while many edibles leave a lingering distillate or solvent taste in your mouth, these taste like candy that’s not even infused thanks to expert craftsmanship from Owens. The gummies also have a new hexagonal shape, rather than the rounded gummies we’ve tried from Honeybee in the past; they’re giving honeycomb vibes, which is really more fitting for a brand called Honeybee.
You can find the new blue raspberry gumdrops at many dispensaries across the state – including Proper Cannabis, where Honeybee Edibles is the house brand – available in 100- and 300-milligram bags.
