Hand made Wedding Favours

Honey Lamb Barbecue
This is a spicy lamb kebab you cook on skewers, either on a barbecue or under a grill.

1 lb lamb mince
1 grated onion
4 cloves of garlic, crushed
2 tbsp finely chopped mint
1 tbsp Honey House runny honey
1 tbsp tomato puree
3 tsp ground coriander
2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp ground dried chili
½ tsp ground ginger
½ tsp ground cinnamon
Salt and black pepper.

Place all the ingredients into a food processor and pulse until combined. Wet your hands, divide into eight portions and shape each portion into a sausage about six inches long around skewers. Wetted bamboo skewers can be used.

Place over medium-hot coals turning every few minutes until browned, but still slightly pink in the middle, (about 8 minutes).

Serve with rice and tzatzki. Why not try it with one of the Honey House pickles?

It’s becoming fashionable for wedding guests to be given a small gift by the bride to celebrate the day. The gift is referred to as a “wedding favour.” The idea originated in Italy and it is said the gift offers a wish of health, wealth, happiness, fertility and long life. Honey has been associated with marriage for hundreds of years. In olden days for a month after the wedding the bride and groom ate honey; hence "honeymoon." The traditional Welsh drink to toast the happy couple was mead!

Favours are also becoming increasingly popular for Christenings, Easter, Valentine's Day, Birthdays, Anniversaries, Christmas, and other special occasions.  

 

What could be better as a wedding favour than our Pure Welsh Honey and / or beeswax candles, personalised to your individual requirements? Honey House can supply the ideal wedding favour, unique to you.

 

We  know that wedding favours are only a small part of the whole celebration, but we understand how important it is to get even the little things exactly right on your special day. Our favours are hand made with care by us from start to finish. We enjoy what we do and we pride ourselves on providing a very special service.

 

Naturally, we use only the finest materials to create the gift that will complement your wedding. Our Favours are original and elegant, and are guaranteed to impress.
