My favorite thing to do is to come up with flavors for themed holidays, the season, or the person I’m making a cake for.
So once I baked an incredibly delicate apple and honey cake. It seems that it was the last month of summer, when fresh honey was just being pumped out, and there were already fragrant apples in the garden.
This cake differs from the classic Medovik (honey cake) as it contains honey biscuits. This way it is much faster to cook and you do not need to roll out thin cakes for a long time.
