A Life Made By Old Hands

~Honey Cake~

~The Ultimate Honey Cake~

This is the best Honey Cake I have made and it is taken from a recipe of Grandma Celia with additions of spices from me. I have used it year after year on special occasions and I love it the next day warmed up with butter for a sweet addition to breakfast or a snack. The husband loves to take this one to the office for those coffee breaks and it seems it is a hit with everyone there.

This batch makes 2 loaves as you see in the photos below so a small crowd can each have a piece. Depending on how you cut this, you can get 20 or so slices.

Gather Ingredients.
Mix
Pour into prepped pans
I used 2 different pans
Bake at 350
This is why parchment is so good
Prepping the baking tin is well worth the extra.
The difference in a lighter pan and a darker pan. The darker was done sooner.
Nice and rich

Enjoy.

● About

People call me Mrs. Shecky but my name is Kathleen Jennette. One day I will grow out of that, but for now I am the creator and author behind this blog. Its a simple blog coming from my comfortable craft room at home in Sheckyville. Inspired by anything crafty and in particular journaling with fountain pens.
Tales From My Lens is my photography blog, but at home I love to write and craft what I call doo-dads. I know I am not the only one out there so I hope those that you can enjoy this small space.

The Great Grand Ladies in my life, that is, Great, Great Great, and Great Great and Great Grandmothers are my inspiration. Because of them, their writing and crafts were instilled in me with ephemera saved throughout the years. 
Its in the blood

I have revamped this site a bit and have archived a lot to make way for the new.
Thank you for joining me.
