Disclosed are a method for producing honey powder having granular, powdered or other various shapes by drying a composition in which crude honey and other additives are mixed, and a honey powder produced by the method. The method includes (a) preparing constituent ingredients by weighting 5 to 95 wt% of crude honey and 95 to 5 wt% of predetermined additive powder; (b) homogeneously mixing the prepared constituent ingredients; and (c) dry-powdering the mixed composition by removing moisture in the mixed composition using a predetermined drying manner. While crude honey was in a liquid state that is not easily dealt and stored and has a limit in development of products in various ways, this method solves such problems. Thus, the method will contribute to more profits of apicultural farmers as well as promote health of the people and development of relative industries by means of various kinds of honey products.
