Oh, honey. This cake.
This cake is delicate and moist, simple and yet rich in flavor. It’s a little bit elegant but easy to mix up. Basically, it’s a home run. A honeyed home run. (If that’s a thing.)
It’s just on the edge of being cloyingly sweet, but the subtle spice of the cinnamon and ginger bring it back from the brink. And besides, the sweetness comes along with the clean and floral flavor of honey, with just a little bit of caramelly brown sugar behind it for good measure. Sour cream and four whole eggs lend richness and ensure that the cake is moist and tender down to the last honeyed morsel.
While the cake is a treasure in itself, the glaze that gets poured over it is the perfect gal Friday. It seeps into the cake, permeating the crumb with buttery honey-vanilla flavor. It enhances each flavor component going on in the cake but doesn’t make it soggy or too saturated. It’s an ideal symbiotic relationship.
Serving this for a simple dessert is a no-brainer, but if you’re the type of person that sits down to afternoon tea, you’ll find no better companion than this cake. And we’ll just say, we also wouldn’t be ashamed to eat it for breakfast.
It’s simple, it’s subtle, it’s sweet. And it’s stolen our hearts.
