It certainly could. While not at the top of the list, honey Allergies, especially to unfiltered honey, are not at all uncommon, and manifest as you describe. If you start to react strongly, or have trouble breathing, it's 911 time. If it's just a rash, cease the honey and try an antihistamine (I like Diphenhydramine for this one). Take it as per the instructions on the box.

NO! An allergy is something that produces a histamine reaction. You can only be allergic to proteins, and sugar is a carbohydrate. You can have trouble managing sugar (e.g. diabetes), or you can be allergic to some pollens that are sometimes in some types of sugar (e.g. honey), but your body absolutely requires sugars to live, so you can't be allergic to it.
