Hi Allen Lloyd and all

Honey going into tubs and then freezer is liquid without obvious  
crystals.  It is solid(one characteristic of frozen) and visibly  
crystallized when removed from freezer then soft and creamy at room  
temperature.

I produce cut comb honey and store it in the freezer until sold.  The  
honey in the comb is liquid when returned to room temperature.  This  
cut comb is from the same supers that produced the extracted honey.
