In Palworld, Honey is required to make Cakes, the main ingredient you’ll need for the Breeding Farm to function. So, anyone looking to exploit the breeding system must know the best ways to harvest it.
Collecting resources is just as important as catching new Pals in Palworld. From Electric Organs for crafting, and Pure Quartz for Circuit making, there are a lot of materials to find. While Honey doesn’t have multiple purposes like some others, it’s still helpful to have in your inventory.
How to get Honey in Palworld
Since it’s not available for sale at any Wandering Merchant location point, the main way to get Honey in Palworld is to collect it from Pals that you have defeated or captured or farm it on your base.
There are only five Pals that drop Honey in the game right now:
The best Pal to farm Honey when you’re starting out is Cinnamoth as they’re relatively easy to defeat, so we’d recommended specifically seeking them out during the early hours of Palworld, and when you’re ready to take on the other Pals just make sure you’re fully prepared.
Honey locations
We’ve got a rundown of all the locations for the Pals that drop Honey in Palworld below:
Cinnamoths can be found on the center island with all the Mountain Stream Grotto dungeons, so be sure to explore in and around there to find this Honey producer.

Beegarde is one of the more reliable Pals to farm Honey with. Luckily, they’re easy to find around the Frostbound Mountains. Just approach them carefully and try to capture them fast, as they will use their Bee Quiet attack, causing a violent explosion that results in their instant death.

Elizabees can be encountered almost anywhere on the northeastern grassy island around the Frostbound Mountains, the same area where Beegardes can be found. However, there’s one Alpha Elizabee on the Devout’s Mineshaft in the Moonless Shore, north of the Ancient Ritual Site.

Warsect can provide Honey but it will likely be the hardest to find early on in the game. Players can encounter Warsect as an Alpha Boss in the Sealed Realm of the Stalwart dungeon at level 30, or in the No.2 Wildlife Sanctuary on the west side of Palpagos Island.
On the other hand, Warsect Terra is a field Alpha Boss from the Feybreak update who can be found just west of the Loess Plains teleport point on the new island.
You can farm honey from this Pal but since it’s the toughest creature on this list at Level 59, we’d advise sticking to the others unless you want more of a challenge.

How to farm Honey in Palworld
Aside from getting Honey as drops from captured or dead Pals, players can get plenty of this resource by creating a Honey farm once they unlock the Ranch at level 5.
It is as easy as capturing some of the Pals mentioned above and putting them to work at your base. We’d recommend going after a few Beegardes and putting them to work on your Ranch to get the farm going, but you can use any of the others in a pinch.

Ranching Honey from Pals is quite a slow process, as it can take several hours to get Honey from it. For that reason, it makes sense to try and stock one of your bases with as many Beegardes as possible to try and get Honey production at top speeds.
Remember to add a Wooden Chest or a Feed Box to gather all the Honey in one place.
What is Honey used for in Palworld? – All recipes
As an edible, the only use Honey has in Palworld is as an ingredient for crafting Cakes. Even though it doesn’t sound as much, Cakes are key in the game, as they enable you to breed Pals.
Once you unlock the Breeding Farm at level 19, you can get Eggs from any Pal combinations. Just put a male and female together, add Cake to a Chest, and wait.
Keep in mind that to cook a Cake you’ll need a Cooking Pot (unlocked at level 17), which requires 3 Flame Organs, 20 Wood, and 15 Ingot. After you’re all set and have gathered the rest of the required ingredients, you can craft it following the recipe:
CATEGORY | ITEM | INGREDIENTS | USE | LEVEL | TECH REQUIRED |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Consumable | Cake | – 2 Honey – 5 Flour – 8 Red Berries – 7 Milk – 8 Egg | A Cake for breeding Pals. | Lv. 17 | – Cooking Pot – 2 Technology Points |
