Is invert sugar the same as honey?

Re: Invert sugar and honey Honey is a complex mix of sugars but it is mainly glucose (roughly 30%, by weight) and fructose (40%) in invert form; the bees supply the invertase, which is the enzyme that inverts the fructose. Honey’s make-up is not consistent – it varies by source, season, region, and producer.
