Honey, who wore a distinctive white shirt with a large St George's flag on it, is now facing jail after admitting three counts of burglary.
The yob also pleaded guilty to racially aggravated criminal damage after smashing up a BMW and nine other cars during the August 3 riot.
Footage showed him leaving a Lush store with an armful of wrapped goods as the city came under siege.
He was also filmed looting a Shoezone that was later torched during the carnage.
Police later confirmed 11 officers were injured as the city was left covered in debris from the rampage.
Honey was described as playing a "prominent role" in the 12 hours of violence.
His sentencing was adjourned until Friday after a prison officer claimed Honey asked if I wanted his autograph as he is famous and is all over social media".
