Frequently Asked Questions

What do I have to put on honey labels by law?

Most places require the following things: The name of the product (honey), net weight, and the producer's name and address. However, some places also require the compleet list of ingredients. Each state and country have different regulations so make sure to check local food labeling laws.

What is the best size of labels to use for honey jars?

It really depends on your jar size. 8-oz and 16-oz mason jars typically require labels between 3x4 inches or 2x3 inches. Small jars require smaller labels. Take a measurement of your jar before ordering so that the label will fit perfectly.

How do you prevent labels from peeling off honey jars?

Ensure jars are clean and totally dry before applying labels to them. Label slowly and press down to force air bubbles out. Store labeled jars in dry environment.

Can custom honey labels be used on plastic squeeze bottles?

Yes, they stick to glass jars and plastic bottles too. Just ensure that the surface is clean and smooth. Textured or curved bottles would require special label size or shape in order to stick well.

Are honey labels waterproofed?

Waterproof labels are not required but are a good idea. Honey jars are sticky, and customers wash their hands once they've opened them. Water-resistant labels keep your brand from appearing amateurish after a little water exposure.
