Yes, the cake has the word honey in it. No, I didn’t use honey. This is for the Baker’s Challenge and since I’m half Russian I couldn’t say no to trying out a Russian cake! This is my 4th Baking Partners challenge and it was such a challenge. It takes quite a long time from start to finish, so be sure to give yourself enough time. . Rolling out cake is just plain weird, but hey, it’s traditional right? But who needs honey when there is agave? It was a pain in the butt to make but look at what happened? It was a great treat. The cake did stick a bit to the silpats which made for the hour or so of baking a chore.

This is a traditional layered cake. The layers are really thin and absorb a lot of the filling. Yes, the icing or frosting was just sour cream and sugar. It just worked honestly. It’s quite runny, the point is that it absorbs mostly into the cake. The cake is pretty much held together with crumbs. I actually was worried so I sacrificed a layer for crumbs just in case I didn’t have enough to cover the cake.

These photos are after 24 hours in the fridge. It set up perfect and was so tasty to eat for breakfast. Now maybe I’ll have my breakfast for lunch!
