Local Business Spotlight: The Honey Stop

We are starting something new. As bargain shoppers and local Utah gals, we thought it would be fun to start featuring some of our favorite local shops. You know, the secret little stores that only the locals know about. We hope you like this idea, please “LIKE” “Share” & “Tweet” if you do.

Utah has a VERY cool new store! Check out The Honey Stop, located in Downtown Salt Lake on 159 East 800 South. The Honey Stop sells raw wildflower honey from regions all over the world. You can sample honey like Brazilian Pepper from Florida, Tropical Blossom from Brazil and my personal favorite,  Blackberry from Oregon. Of course, there is also honey from our good old fashioned Utah Clover too.

My new friend Peter, a former Pilot and world traveler, the owner of the Honey Stop, learned the benefits of the raw honey while living in Russia. Peter tells me that honey consists mostly of natural sugars, that provide the body with immediate energy. It has nutritional value, in the form of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, amino acids and active enzymes and also contains antibiotic benefits. What I can tell you, It's Delish! I've had toast and honey for breakfast everyday, since visiting his shop..warning.. it's slightly addicting.

The store also carries a variety of Gift Baskets, Honey Skin Care items, fresh pollen and even Honey wound care. Prices for 12 oz jar start at $7.50 depending on region.

Plus, be sure to check out The Honey Stop website, there is a wealth of information on it, including some intriguing recipes for Tonics, Scrubs and Wound Care. You can also sign up for their monthly newsletter.

Special thanks to my new friend Peter, owner of The Honey Stop,  for showing me around his fun store. Visit The Honey Stop's Facebook page here.

Happy Tasting!

Aren't local spotlights fun? What business do you think we should feature next?
