Honey Saves Hives partnerships not only raise awareness for honey bees, but they also promote nutrition for the entire family. The unique collaboration highlights better-for-you bars and snack products for kids; in fact, one sweetened-with-honey bar also includes one serving of fruits and vegetables, many that wouldn’t be possible without honey bees’ pollination efforts. The National Honey Board spoke to the team at This Saves Lives about the Honey Saves Hives cooperation and why it’s the perfect pairing with the motto: “Buy a bar. Feed a Child. We Eat Together.”
It is important that we work alongside other food brands and bring awareness to the importance of honey bees. Honey is a premium ingredient we use in all of our kids and adult snack bars. Honey bees also pollinate the nuts and fruits included in our snack bars. We are excited to partner with the National Honey Board to bring awareness to how integral honey bees are to providing delicious, nutritious food.

The honey in our Beehive Jive bar is the rockstar ingredient; it gets first billing and for good reason — it’s a delicious crowd pleaser! Not only does it act as a natural and effective binder with the oats and other sub-ingredients, but it also brings a very nuanced and warm flavor profile to the bar. Soft, balanced sweetness, and ridiculously delicious — for kids and parents alike!

Honey is a premium ingredient that accentuates our other natural ingredients, including almonds, flax seeds and Madagascar vanilla. Consumers love honey, as it brings a sophisticated flavor that’s familiar and exciting.

We wanted to keep sugar levels low, especially in our kids bars. And rather than moving to alternative sweeteners, honey checked all the boxes of flavor, sweetness and binding properties.
