Ingredients
Rich, nutty, and deeply caramel-sweet, this traditional honey layer cake—often associated with Czech and Armenian baking—relies on thin, tender sheets of honey dough layered with a creamy, nut-studded caramel filling. The ingredients below support that signature balance of mellow sweetness and gentle crunch.
- Honey – 200 g (7 oz)
- Butter – 150 g (5.3 oz)
- Sugar – 100 g (3.5 oz)
- Eggs – 2
- Flour – 400 g (14 oz)
- Baking soda – 1 tsp
- Sweetened condensed milk – 300 g (10.5 oz)
- Walnuts or hazelnuts – 150 g (5.3 oz), chopped
This cake is traditionally assembled in multiple thin layers that soften gradually as they absorb the caramel cream, resulting in a melt-in-your-mouth texture by the next day.
