I've a question about honey and bees.

I have some awful tasting dark honey I purchased last year in Arizona. Since I have this brand new hive in the backyard, where the poor things have to start from scratch (they have sugar water) I was wondering if I could feed them this honey somehow. It's got to be better for them than sugar water. Maybe a little on a plate during the day time? I don't want to encourage skunks, racoons or other night time creatures so I was thinking I could take the plate away at night.
