Homemade Honey Cake….

Last week we were lucky to receive some lovely honey from Rowse Honey, it came in a lovely box with some gorgeous honey cupcakes which only just lasted long enough for me to take a photo….

The honey lasted slightly longer though, long enough for us to make a lovely honey cake yesterday afternoon in fact.  Honey cake is our favourite type of cake to make – the shove it all in a bowl and mix type!  The end results were lovely and it’s actually a very grown up kind of cake (unless you spread chocolate spread on it like we did
