Unpasteurized honey does.
Honey with higher fructose content and lower glucose content tends to crystallize less frequently. This is because glucose is more prone to crystallization than fructose. Honey with a higher fructose-to-glucose ratio, like acacia or tupelo honey, is less likely to crystallize.
There are few tests can be applied from home to check purity of honey.• Take a teaspoon of the honey and put in a glass full of water. Fake honey will dissolve in the water while pure honey will settle at the bottom of the glass as limps for having more dense texture.• Dip a cotton pad or the cotton wick into a bit of the honey. Attempt to light the cotton pad or wick using matchstick. If it burns easily, then it probably has no added water. If it refuses to burn or makes a cracking sound instead, water may have been added.• Put a drop of honey on your thumbnail. Check if it spills or spreads. If it spreads, then the honey is impure since pure honey will stay intact on your thumb.• Put a few drops of honey on a blotting paper. It may be absorbed or leave a wet mark on the paper, but impure honey will leave a wet mark.
There are few homely ways you can check the purity of honey. Please try the following:1. Take a teaspoon of the honey and put in a glass full of water. Adulterated honey will dissolve in the water easily, but pure honey will settle right at the bottom of the glass as lumps for having more dense texture.2. Dip a cotton pad cotton wick into a bit of the honey, then attempt to light the cotton pad or wick in fire probably in a candle. If it burns easily, then it probably has no added water. If it refuses to burn or makes a cracking sound instead, water may have been added.
Honey contains natural sugars like glucose and fructose, which can crystallize over time, causing the honey to thicken and become grainy. However, some types of honey have a higher ratio of fructose to glucose, which makes them less likely to crystallize or go 'candy.' Honey that is high in fructose and low in glucose typically stays liquid for longer periods.
All honey eventually will crystallize. It is a natural process of aging. However, if you would like to speed up the process to make creamed honey, there are a couple of methods you can use. The easiest is to just leave a container of uncovered honey in the refrigerator for several weeks. The more scientific method is called the Dyce Process (discovered in 1928 by Professor Elton J. Cyce, Cornell University). See related links for details about how to make your honey crystallize using a controlled method.
The sugar in honey will often crystallize on the sides of the jar.
Honey can crystallize quickly due to factors like temperature changes, high glucose content, or the presence of pollen particles. These conditions can cause the glucose in the honey to form crystals, making it appear solid or grainy.
Leave a good quality honey for a few months and it will crystallize and become chewy.

Pure Electric Honey was created in 1990.
You can, but you don't need to refrigerate honey. Refrigeration may make the honey crystallize sooner, but it will not harm the honey. Keep the honey in a sealed container to prevent evaporation in a frost-free refrigerator.

Eventually, all honey will crystallize. However, this does not harm the honey. Just heat it gently to turn it back into a liquid. Or, just eat the crystallized honey, it will not harm you.
