Pro Winter Feed
Packed with nutrients and easy to place—designed to support your bees through the coldest months.
Pro Winter Feed
Pro Winter Feed is a soft sugar paste—similar to cookie dough—that works like fondant or a sugar brick for fall and winter feeding. It’s easy to scoop, shape, and place inside the hive, giving colonies extra insurance against starvation when natural stores are low.
Key Features and Benefits
-
Soft sugar paste: Cookie-dough consistency makes it easy to scoop, shape, and spread.
-
Fall & winter feeding: Ideal when hives are light on stores or need emergency backup food.
-
Brood-safe formulation: Very low protein content prevents early brood rearing.
-
Easy placement: Press directly onto top bars under an 8-frame or 10-frame inner cover—no parchment or wax paper needed.
-
Fondant alternative: Works like fondant or sugar bricks but is easier to apply.
Detailed Description
Pro Winter Feed provides carbohydrate-rich nutrition when bees need it most. The soft, pliable texture makes it versatile and simple to use—just scoop out a portion, form a patty, and press it onto the top bars beneath the inner cover. It can be used throughout fall and winter, whether as a precaution or when colonies are noticeably light on stored honey.
Because the formula contains only a very small amount of protein, it supports the colony without stimulating premature brood production—a critical factor during cold months.
From the Manufacturer:
Bulk Pro Winter Patties provide food stores when colonies find the cupboards bare. They offer carbohydrates with minimal protein to avoid early brood rearing, making them ideal for cold-weather feeding.
