I've used dawn dish soap and water, let it soak....same stuff we use on plants as mild pest control, so even if you left a residue...no problem....but still rinse until no bubbles form

Honey is naturally antibacterial/antifungal, so you don't have to worry about sterilizing it.
Hot water and soap should do the trick to clean it.

Oxyclean works well, but I'm with VT Steve on this one. Shouldn't be too hard to rinse them and maybe a bit of dish soap or Dr. Bronners. Honey is just about the best thing you could have had in there.

Maybe that lacquer had something to do with your success this year.
