Dried bee pollen — the same spring harvest, shelf-stable.
Multicoloured granules the bees gathered across South East Melbourne, gently dried so they keep at room temperature. No fridge, no rush — this is the easy one to live with, and the one to give as a gift or keep in the pantry.
Gentle drying trades a little of the fresh pollen’s moisture and delicate aromatics for months of shelf life. Roughly 20–25% protein, granular, faintly floral and faintly bitter, shifting with the flowers the bees worked.
Stir it through yoghurt, blend it into a smoothie, or scatter it over muesli, porridge or fruit. Don’t cook it — heat undoes the reason for eating it raw. Keep it sealed, cool and dry.
Before you buy: bee pollen can cause serious allergic reactions in some people, including anaphylaxis. If you’re allergic to pollen, bee stings or bee products, don’t take it without medical advice. Not for infants under 12 months. New to it? Start with a few granules. More on what it is and who shouldn’t take it.
