WHAT TYPES OF CUSTOMSTIX CAN YOU PRODUCE?
Shelf-stable non-perishable foods such as syrups, and sweeteners. We aren't able to process foods with dairy, nut products, or requiring refrigeration. We must be informed of any and all additives beforehand, as these may impact pricing.
INFUSED HONEYS AND SPECIALTY LIQUIDS
DO YOU PRODUCE INFUSED HONEYS OR SPECIALTY LIQUIDS?
Yes, we are able to produce Customstix with infused honeys and specialty liquids. Infused honeys, such as those with added flavors or medicinal ingredients, can be a delightful addition to your product line. However, before sending in your infused honey or specialty liquid, please contact us to discuss the specifics.
ARE THERE ADDITIONAL FEES FOR INFUSED HONEYS?
Due to the unique nature of infused honeys and specialty liquids, there may be additional fees involved. The final cost will depend on the type and complexity of the infusion, as well as any additional processing requirements. We will provide a detailed quote once we understand your specific needs.
HOW DO I GET STARTED WITH MY INFUSED HONEY ORDER?
To ensure the highest quality and safety of your Customstix, we need to be informed of all additives and ingredients in your infused honey or specialty liquid. Please reach out to us with the details of your infusion, and we will guide you through the next steps, including pricing and processing timelines.
CUSTOMSTIX HONEY REQUIREMENTS
IS THE HONEY FILTERED, OR HEATED?
We do warm the honey to approximately 135 in order to remove crystals and allow the honey to flow through our machines. It is then strained in order to allow stronger seals.
DOES MY HONEY/CUSTOMSTIX LIQUID NEED TO BE TABLE GRADE AND FILTERED?
We require all honey to be table grade and filtered at least one time. All liquids (including honey) that have additives must be free of particles and/or bits to ensure a proper seal. Also, if your honey is crystallized, we ask that you please liquify the honey before sending it to us for production.
IS THERE A SPECIFIC MOISTURE CONTENT FOR HONEY?
We request that all honey sent in is around 18 percent moisture content. If you have questions about the moisture content for other liquids, send us an email.

UPS, FedEx, and the U.S. Postal Service will handle pails more efficiently if they are not enclosed in a box. Make sure that your name, address, and type of honey are attached directly to the pail. For added security, wrap a 2" wide band of duct or packaging tape around the belt line where the lid meets the bucket.
