Hi everybody,
Can everyone give me the recipe for 'Honey Cake'. I remember the one which we get in the bakery... where the cake has been frosted with Jam and rolled over the finely grated coconut.

Thanks.

  Hi Kavi,
  I got a recipe for 'Honey Cake' and i tried it. It came out well but it is not as the one, which we get in the bakery. But it tastes good.
  
  HoneyCake :
  -----------
  Ingredients :
  -------------
  1 cup oil
  4 eggs
  1 cup honey
  3/4 cup sugar
  1 teaspoon baking powder
  1 teaspoon vanilla
  2 cups flour
  
  Method :
  --------
  Mix ingredients together, beating until mixture is smooth and fluffy. Bake at 300 degrees Fahrenheit for 1 hour. Lower temperature to 275 degrees Fahrenheit and monitor at 15 minute intervals.
  
  Note :
  ------
  It is given in the recipe that we have to bake it at 300 degrees F for 1 hr. But it got baked well within 45 min itself. So you can test the cake now and then so that it doesn't get charred.
  
  Enjoy!

  Hi Kavi,
  yep... as u told it has the jam frosting and coconut. But with the recipe which i have given above, we don't get a juicy(somewhat... not so dry) cake. So it is impossible to have the coconut coating. If u like, u can try the jam kind of frosting alone.
  
  What i guess is, instead of sugar, if we add the same quantity of honey, we might get a juicy cake. But i haven't tried that yet.
  
  Try the first said recipe and enjoy the cake!
