"Honey can be used in some potions and it also tastes good on toast."
— Description[src]

Honey is a sweet substance made by bees from the nectar in flowers.[1] It is consumed by humans as a foodstuff, and could also be used by wizards as a potion ingredient, especially when made into honeywater.[2]

There were certain types of honey, such as Heather Honey and Acacia Honey, which had different flavours.[3]

Honey was a known component of Belch Powder;[4] 2 pounds of honey, in the apothecaries' system of weights, were required ingredients.[5]

Home Made Yummy Honey was a type of honey made by Molly Weasley.[6]

The Glumbumble had a disastrous effect on the honey produced if it infested a beehive.[7]
