Hi Annette,

 

What testure has the sugar? Is it granular like Tate & Lyles as you would put in your tea or powdery like castor sugar or a damp lump like fondant?  Is it pure sucrose, one or more of the other 'oses' or does it contain impurities?  What colour is it?  Does it leave a sediment if dissolved in water?

 

Chris

Hi Dave. I get blocks of natural unrefined palm sugar from. M. Ashraf, 170 Carr Road, Nelson, Lancashire, U.K. Tel: 01282 601726. I cut a small section out of the cellophane covering, place it over one of the holes (Porter escape) in the crown board and leave the bees to excavate. They clean the whole lot out if they are in need. I hope this info. is of help. Thanks for replying. Annette
