About this supplement
Spray-dried honey powder is a dehydrated, free-flowing powder produced by spray-drying liquid honey. This process removes moisture while preserving many of honey's natural sugars, enzymes, antioxidants, and trace nutrients. The resulting powder is highly soluble, has a long shelf life, and is convenient for incorporation into solid formulations like capsules, tablets, and functional food products. It retains the characteristic sweet flavor and some functional properties of liquid honey, though some heat-sensitive components may be diminished.

Chemical ID (CAS)
8028-66-8 (for honey, not specific to powder)
Physical properties
Fine, free-flowing powder; color ranges from off-white to light tan depending on honey source; hygroscopic (absorbs moisture); highly soluble in water; sweet taste.
How it’s made
Liquid honey is often mixed with a carrier (like maltodextrin) to prevent stickiness, then atomized into a hot drying chamber. The fine droplets rapidly lose moisture, forming solid powder particles which are collected.
