We use both glass and plastic packaging for creamed honey. The plastic tubs
are a little less expensive, especially so if they are printed saving the
cost of labels and the time applying them.

We prefer plastic tubs for sales to supermarkets because creamed honey
packed in glass will sometimes get a frosted and unsightly  appearance which
definitely detracts from sales.

At our farmers market table and from our farm where we sell  500 gram
containers in both glass and plastic side by side and at the same price,
plastic tubs outsell glass jars by a very small margin.
