This page is for general questions about our shop. Here is the Holiday FAQ.
FAQ
Where are you? When are you open?
Our address is 140 6th Street SW, in downtown Winter Haven. Our hours are Tuesday-Friday 7am-3pm, and weekends from 8am-2pm. We are closed Mondays. Looking forward to your visit!
What is Fresh-Milled Flour?
Freshly-milled flour is a distinctly different product from flours you can find in grocery stores. Our organic grain has the wheat’s rich and creamy flavor and dense nutritional profile preserved immediately after milling. These important flavor and nutrient compounds are lost through spoilage and oxidization over time, so large commercial mills must remove them during their manufacturing process, meaning their bleached white flour is flavorless and starchy. A good comparison is the difference in quality to freshly-ground artisan coffee beans to pre-ground coffee bag.
Once you try the fresh product, there is no going back!
Are your products organic and vegan?
Many of them are! Honeycomb is proud to partner with organic farmers and we use organic wheat grown in the USA. All of our sourdough breads are vegan, and any products that contains dairy or eggs, or common allergens will be clearly marked.
How do I place a catering order?
Catering requests and larger special orders can be placed using our contact us page.
When do you have my favorite pastry?
Our pastry selection changes daily depending on the season, our supply chain, our staffing schedule, and even the weather. The specialty items such as almond croissant and danishes are typically made on the weekends, and donuts we make on Tuesdays. If there’s something in particular you’re looking for, we recommend calling to ask what we have.
Can I call and have you set something aside for me?
We accept reservation requests using this online form. We do not accept orders or payment over the phone.
How do I store my loaf of bread?
Bread becomes stale due to moisture evaporating; so keep it in something airtight such as ziplock bag, plastic wrap, or other container. We highly recommend freezing bread that you want to keep fresh past 2-3 days. For more on this subject, read through this PDF on keeping bread fresh.
What are Breadcrumbs?
Breadcrumbs are a program that rewards our most loyal guests. Earn breadcrumbs for every item purchased, save up, then redeem them for discounts. You can view details of the program and enroll here.
