12 oz Plastic Flat Panel Honey Bears

The 12 oz classic honey bear bottle is one of the most recognizable containers for pure honey. Made from soft, LDPE plastic, it’s easier to handle than standard honey bears and features a flat panel design that holds a 2" x 2.25" label—perfect for clean, clear branding. These bottles are lightweight, practical, and designed specifically for bottling liquid honey.

Available in squeezable and non-squeezable.

Detailed Description

The 12 oz Plastic Flat Panel Honey Bear offers both charm and function, making it a popular choice for bottling liquid honey. Each bottle is constructed from BPA-free, super clear PET plastic, which is recyclable and designed to showcase honey clearly.

The soft, LDPE construction makes dispensing honey easier compared to firmer containers, and the flat panel provides a designated area for a 2" x 2.25" label.

Each bear is made with a 38-400 continuous thread top, compatible with multiple lid styles including 38 mm flip-top and 38 mm dripless lids (sold separately). Lids also include pressure-sensitive safety seals, which press into place automatically when tightened.

While the bottle’s liquid volume is 8 fluid ounces, it is specifically designed for honey and therefore advertised and sold as a 12 oz honey jar (340 g / 1 cup).
