This Russian Honey Cake is a spectacular multi-layered dessert, featuring thin, honey-infused cake layers separated by a tangy sour cream and whipped cream frosting. The entire cake is covered in toasted cake crumbs, offering a wonderfully complex flavor profile with deep, caramelized honey notes and a surprisingly light, moist texture.

🍳 調理の流れ

Prepare the burnt honey and use it to make a warm cake batter over a double boiler with butter, sugar, eggs, and flour. → Bake 8 very thin cake layers, plus an extra sheet for crumbs. Trim the layers and crush the extra into a fine crumb coating. → Whip heavy cream with sour cream and the remaining burnt honey to create a tangy frosting. → Assemble the cake by alternating layers of cake and frosting, then coat the entire outside with the crumbs. → Refrigerate overnight to allow the layers to soften and flavors to meld before serving.

重要なメモ

⚠️

This recipe is considered difficult and time-consuming, but the result is well worth the effort.

⚠️

Using a double boiler (or a bowl over very low heat) is essential for making the batter to prevent scorching.

⚠️

It is highly recommended to have multiple baking sheets and silicone mats to speed up the process of baking the layers.

⚠️

The overnight refrigeration step is not optional; it is critical for achieving the cake's signature soft, moist texture as the frosting soaks into the layers.

⚠️

Save all cake trimmings and scraps, as they are toasted and ground up to create the classic crumb coating for the cake.
