  • subheading: Notes:
  • I created this cake for Aila. Out of respect, I will not be answering substitution questions for this recipe. Please choose from one of my other various cupcakes or cake recipes in my books or here on the blog if this particular one doesn’t fit your dietary needs. If you experiment and make substitutions and enjoy your results, please come back and leave a comment to let others know!
  • The color of the honey used will dictate the color of this cake and frosting. I suggest using a light-colored, mild-flavored raw honey, such as clover.
  • Use your leftover egg yolks in ice creams, puddings,  custards, or a big batch of  hollandaise.
