We were Darling's,
now we're Honey's


Sadly, we have had to change the name of our dog food for legal reasons. For more information visit Darling’s Real Food.

Your food is made to order, frozen within minutes and then sent to you by courier over night.

What about once you have taken delivery? We recommend that you unpack the food from the insulated box (note that it is recyclable) and stack it in your freezer.

Before going to bed at night just take out the following day’s food and it will be all ready and thawed in the morning.

The advantage of this system is that you can be certain the food you are serving is as fresh as fresh can be.

Incidentally, if your food thaws a little in transit that is fine. Nowadays domestic freezers are so efficient that food can be thawed and re-frozen several times without any health risk.


It is OK to freeze bones

Incidentally, it is quite OK to freeze any bones you order. You can then thaw them as needed although some dogs actually love chewing on frozen bones.



Tips if your freezer is too small for all your Honey’s

Although we pack all our food and bones so that they take up as little space as possible you may find that your freezer is just not big enough for all the Honey’s you need. Different options include:

  • Ordering more frequently. We will despatch every 14 days although it does work out more expensive because of the extra packaging and delivery charges.

  • Asking a friend or relative to help by keeping some of the food for you in their freezer.

  • Keeping food for up to five days in your fridge.

  • Buying a new freezer. If the only other option is ordering more frequently it is actually more cost effective to buy an extra freezer.
