Here, sugar is usually mixed with water in a ratio of 3:2, or less frequently 1:1. This sugar is chemically identical to the sucrose contained in nectar and honeydew, the raw materials of honey. The bee therefore also possesses the necessary metabolic enzymes, such as Invertase, to be able to use sucrose as a nutrient. The production of the sugar solution is usually associated with a high labour spending. The microbiological instability of such a food must also be taken into account, which results in a limited shelf life and thus a limited period of use for the prepared sugar solution.

They are composed of different proportions of glucose, maltose as well as higher molecular weight maltooligosaccharides and isomaltooligosaccharides. Of these substances, only glucose is present in higher proportions in honeys and maltose can account for up to 8 %. The remaining oligosaccharides are present only in very small  percentage into honeys. Starch-based foods are therefore less similar to the natural nutrients of bees. Some of these products also contain high levels of ash and dye due to their production process.
