"HMF is not a problem in honey unless it is heated"
Pure saccharose seems to be best without acid
Lab Comparison of High Fructose Corn Syrup, Grape Syrup, Honey, and Sucrose Syrup as Maintenance Food for Caged Honey Bees Apidologie, 1978, 9 (2), 111-116. Roy J. BARKER and Yolanda LEHNER
Honey or high fructose corn syrup fed to worker bees failed to show any advantage over sucrose syrup. Grape syrup caused dysentery and reduced survival. Caged bees survived longest on sucrose syrup.
Acidity in honey is decreasing conservation and speed up HMF production.
Georges from France
