The jar that makes your honey look as good as it tastes
The jar does more of the selling than most beekeepers give it credit for. At a market stall or on a gift shelf, people judge the honey through the glass before they ever taste it, and a tired-looking round jar with a bubbling label undersells what is inside. Packaging is the one part of the harvest you can control completely.
These 500ml square glass jars come in packs of 9. The glass is clear so the color of your honey does the talking, and each pack comes with your choice of black or white lids. Black reads premium and modern. White is the classic look most people associate with honey.
Why Square Beats Round
The square shape is not just about looks. Flat faces mean your labels sit flush against the glass instead of curling at the edges the way they can on round jars, and the jars pack tighter into boxes and onto shelves with less wasted space. At 110mm tall and 80mm wide, they line up neatly in a market display and stack sensibly in a cupboard at home.
500ml Holds More Honey Than You Might Think
A quick note on capacity, because it trips up new sellers every season. Honey is denser than water, so a 500ml jar holds roughly 700g of honey, not 500g. That matters when you are pricing your harvest and printing weight on your labels. If you sell by the standard 500g mark, you can fill to a line instead of the brim and the jar still looks generously full.
A Mouth Wide Enough to Be Practical
The neck measures 65mm on the outside and 62mm on the inside. In practice that means the jar fills cleanly under a honey gate without splashing, a normal spoon reaches the bottom corners, and washing them out for reuse is no trouble. Once the honey is gone, they earn their keep holding preserves, spices or whatever else ends up in the pantry.

How much honey does a 500ml jar actually hold?
Roughly 700g. Honey is denser than water, so a 500ml jar holds well over 500g by weight. Keep that in mind when pricing your harvest and printing weights on labels. If you sell at the standard 500g mark, fill to a line rather than the brim and the jar still looks generously full.
How many jars come in a pack?
Each pack contains 9 jars with your choice of black or white lids across the pack. The square shape also means they pack tighter into boxes and onto shelves than round jars, so storage and transport takes up less space per jar.
Can I choose the lid color?
Yes. Each pack comes with your choice of black or white lids, selectable on the product page. The glass itself is always clear, only the lid color changes.
Why square jars instead of round?
Two practical reasons. Labels sit flat against the square faces instead of curling at the edges the way they can on round jars, and square jars pack tighter into boxes and market displays with less wasted space.
What size labels fit these jars?
Each flat face is 80mm wide, so labels narrower than that will sit completely flat. Square and rectangular labels suit these jars particularly well for exactly that reason.
Can the jars be washed and reused?
Yes. They are plain glass, so a wash in hot soapy water has them ready to go again. Once the honey is gone, they work just as well for preserves, spices, dry goods or the next harvest.
My honey has gone thick and grainy in the jar. Is something wrong?
No, that is crystallization and it is completely natural. If anything, it is a sign of raw, minimally processed honey. To return it to liquid, stand the jar in warm water and stir occasionally. Never microwave honey, as overheating destroys the natural enzymes that make raw honey worth having.
Will the jars survive shipping?
They are packed to travel, but glass is glass. If anything arrives damaged, contact the team and it will be sorted out.
