MEDOVIK - Russian Honey Cake

pastry-workshop.com/?s=cake
Medovik is a famous Russian dessert made with plenty of honey and sour cream, a dessert that rarely needs any intro as it has become a staple of the Russian pastry. But as delicious as it is, Medovik is not the cake to make when in a hurry. It may not be too complex or complicated, but it is time consuming. All those honey layers require a certain discipline than can only be understood and master by someone doing this for more reasons than just the desire to eat a dessert. Most of the times, behind it all hides a passion for pastry as well, the desire to eat something of great quality and the wish to gift something amazing that will be appreciated by our loved ones.

Omg you are a great at making honey cake ❤😊😊

[@elenekuprashvili1145]

In Russia its not usually to add cardamom to honey cake .
Honey cake is something between honey and caramel flavoured cake .
It will taste much better if u caramelize butter sugar and honey with half of banking soda .
Sour cream is okay but it's better if u add some double cream too
I use 350gramm sour cream
Teaspoon vanilla extract
200g whipping cream
80g sugar

[@sherryl8155]

Why is my cake hard after moving out from the fridge? how can I fix that? Everything looks perfect by following the steps, and it tastes really good, just a bit hard on texture lol

[@-PastryWorkshop-]

You can try adding more cream between the layers!

[@user-ql8gn5cx3v]

Hello, I live in Russia. cardamom is never added to honey cake in Russia

[@devendrashinde1]

Okay give me proof

[@bleaubleau7927]

lol it’s an option I’ll add mine with some white chocolate topping

[@knightsofneeech]

Is there a reason you add the orange zest and vanilla after beating the other cream/sour cream ingredients?

[@-PastryWorkshop-]

Hello, i guess is just habit, no reason for it. You can add it at the beginning as well.

[@mycalamoglia1638]

How long will it take for the biscuits to become soft once the cream is stacked with them?

[@-PastryWorkshop-]

A minimum of 8 hours.

[@sherbisherbi553]

What is sour cream..??heavy cream means is it freash cream or whipping cream...that dou is it cook only in oven??we have to in fry pan

[@-PastryWorkshop-]

Sour cream is fermented cream, heavy cream is whipping cream and you need an oven to make the cake.

[@sherbisherbi553]

@@-PastryWorkshop- thx

[@kanwalasad8180]

I could not find sour cream here….can l replace it with something or just omit it?

[@-PastryWorkshop-]

You can try cream cheese

[@ionitageorgiana4055]

Îmi poți spune te rog cu ce pot înlocui pudra de Cardamom ? ☹️

[@-PastryWorkshop-]

Buna Georgiana, cu orice condiment iti place: Scortisoara, ghimbir sau poti scoate complet din reteta.

[@ionitageorgiana4055]

Pastry Workshop Mulțumesc din suflet ..!❤️❤️❤️

[@Ruby_Nash]

I made this but I found the orange zest overwhelming. It overpowered the honey flavour.

[@niagabriela8930]

Bună seara , oare as putea sa pun o crema de vanilie în loc de frisca și smantana?

[@niagabriela8930]

Sa fie creme patiser cu frisca. As putea ar fi ok?

[@-PastryWorkshop-]

Nu am testat, dar in teorie merge.

[@zeyneptpc2493]

Can we keep the dough cooked or raw in the freezer for a long time? How long can it stay?
Thanx

[@-PastryWorkshop-]

You can keep it 3 days in the fridge and 3 months in the freezer, both raw or baked.

[@sharfoosha]

can i use full fat yogurt instead of sour cream?

[@-PastryWorkshop-]

No, its to soft.

[@afghan1799]

So tasty yummy Recipe cake

[@ziqisoh3852]

Can I make this without sugar?

[@-PastryWorkshop-]

No, it will totally change the texture!
