Is there any source for gelatin balls that could be filled with honey, &
sealed? I know that Mrs. Grasse's Soup uses something like that for a dry
product, not sure how it would work for a liquid like honey. On a larger
scale, such a product could also be marketed to restaurants as an
alternative sweetener for tea & coffee and could be packaged for convenient
home use (both of which also would increase the visibility of honey as a
sweetener).
