pollen


At Les ruches de Mamille, we’re fascinated by pollen, the colourful treasure that our bees so eagerly bring home. It’s much more than just a yellow dust, it’s an explosion of flavours and benefits for the body.

We look after our bees like the apple of our eye, so pollen harvesting is a gentle process. Thanks to our discreet pollen traps, we can collect this precious gift without disturbing our tireless workers.

What we love about pollen is its diversity. Each flower, each plant gives it a unique colour, fragrance and properties. It’s like a symphony of nature in every little grain.

  3. Incorporate it into your recipes: Pollen can be incorporated into a wide range of recipes, from biscuits and energy bars to sauces and dressings. Let your culinary imagination run wild!
  4. Vary the sources: Choose pollen from different flowers to benefit from a wide range of nutrients and flavours.
  5. Store it properly: Keep your pollen in an airtight container, away from light and moisture, to preserve its nutritional properties and freshness.
