!The product is not a health hazard, but its manufacture is prohibited! Stay below to read the food agency's instructions on the Salmiakin flavored honey preparation!
Salmiakin flavored honey product is completely FORBIDDEN, it may not be sold or marketed in Finland.
Additional instructions received from the Food Agency:
Ammonium chloride may not be added to honey, because honey is not mentioned in Annex I of the Aroma Regulation (EC) No. 1334/2008 under ammonium chloride.
In general, if no food groups are mentioned for the flavoring agent in Annex I, the flavoring agent may be used for all foods. If a food group/groups are mentioned for the flavoring agent, the flavoring agent may only be used in the amounts given for those food groups.
For flavoring honey, you can use, for example, the hot water extract of salmiakki sweets, which is an aroma product. EDIT: In addition, an exception must be taken into account in the application of Article 18 transfer principle point 1a of the Additives Regulation (EC) No 1333/2008, as Table 1 of Part A of Annex 2 of the Additives Regulation also prohibits the introduction of additives into honey along with another ingredient. This means that even though ammonium chloride can be introduced into the honey with salmiak sweets, the sweets are added to the honey there must be no additives.
We are very sorry about this and it is very sad that the favorite of taste honeys is gone.

Bees are valuable pollinators whose importance to both agriculture and biodiversity is irreplaceable. The national pollinator strategy and action plan, published by the Ministry of the Environment, are important steps towards securing the future of pollinators and pollination in Finland.

The goal of the strategy is to stop the decrease in the number and diversity of pollinators by 2030, strengthen pollinator populations and secure the pollination of natural and cultivated plants. The action plan contains 27 measures that focus on improving pollinator habitats, responsible use of domesticated pollinators, improving research and monitoring data, and communication and advice.

National pollinator strategy and action plan

Beekeeping is a key part of this strategy. Beekeeping is an important part of the protection and maintenance of pollinators, and securing it in the future is essential for agriculture and biodiversity. The Ministry of the Environment has taken this into account and strives in many ways to ensure the benefits and continuity of the apiary.

One key means is promoting the safe use of cultivated pollinators. This includes, among other things, improving the health, well-being and productivity of honeybees, and promoting the responsible use and import of honeybees. In addition, the training of beekeepers is strengthened and honey quality control is developed.

Another important aspect is the consideration of wild pollinators and the improvement of their habitats. This means, among other things, improving the habitats and living conditions of endangered and common pollinators, as well as improving research and monitoring information about pollinators. In addition, a survey of the location and number of shelter bee hives will be started, on the basis of which a recommendation will be drawn up for sustainable hive densities that do not cause harm to natural pollinators.

In addition, the challenges brought by climate change and their impact on beekeeping are taken seriously. Efforts are being made to prepare for the threats posed by climate change to beekeeping and develop sustainable solutions that enable the continuity of beekeeping and maintain agricultural pollination services while taking wild pollinators into account.

With the help of these measures, the Ministry of the Environment aims to ensure the benefits and continuity of the apiary in the future, while promoting sustainable development and environmental protection.
