As far as I know creeamed honey is a special form of crystallized honey
which has very fine crystals and tastes (physically) like a cream or
butter. Even the same kind of honey e.g. from the oil raps (Brassica
napus L.) can be in three basic forms: 1 - the liquid (immediatelly after
extraction), 2 - crystallized (if left untouched longer time) with large
and rough crystals, and finely 3 - the creamed one (when moved during the
crystalization) which has small crystals indistinquishable in mouth.
