This cake was excellent – a huge hit at my grandma’s birthday party! We’re german, grandma directly from Germany, and she was so excited when I made this Bienenstich kuchen (Beesting cake) recipe. Despite all the honey, the cake is not overly sweet. The diplomat cream is such a nice, light change from the typical heavier frostings. I did everything as directed here, but next time i might add some Disaronno liquor to the honey almond syrup!

I have a culinary degree, specifically in baking and patisserie. I’ve made many of your cakes, this blog is my go-to for delicious sweets, you have never let me down! I also need to be better about writing my reviews when I do so. Thanks for the recipe – i’m saving this one!

Hi Candy! Yes, it’s very soft. You’ll need to hold it in somehow. Read through my post for some tips/options.

I was planning to use diplomat cream for a cake I’m making, but have never tried it before. Is it too soft to use as a filling if I don’t put a well? Thank you!

Hi Lauren! For sure, you can use just a pastry cream instead (no added whipped cream) or any kind of buttercream. A German buttercream would go well as it’s pastry cream based: https://livforcake.com/german-buttercream/

Hi Kerrie! Thanks for catching that and sorry about the error. I’ve updated the recipe. The honey should be added with the vanilla and almond extract.

Your ingredients list for the honey and almond cake itself includes 1/2 cup of honey, but nowhere in the instructions do you include it before it is baked? Can yo tell me at what point should it be added?
Thanks
