Honey Bee Cake



The cake
4 oz bittersweet chocolate (broken into pieces)
1 ⅓ cups light brown sugar
2 sticks soft butter
½ cup honey
2 large eggs
1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon unsweetened cocoa
1 cup boiling water
The sticky honey glaze
¼ cup water
½ cup honey
6 oz bittersweet chocolate
¾ cup confectioners' sugar
The bees
1 oz yellow marzipan

1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees

2. Beat together the sugar and soft butter until airy and creamy, and then add the honey.

3. Add 1 of the eggs, beating it in with a tablespoon of the flour, and then the other egg with another tablespoon of flour. Fold in the melted chocolate, and then the rest of the flour and baking soda. Add the cocoa pushed through a tea strainer to ensure you have no lumps, and last of all, beat in the boiling water. Mix everything well to make a smooth batter and pour into the prepared tin. Cook for up to 1 1/2 hours, though check the cake after 45 minutes and if it is getting too dark, cover the top lightly with aluminium foil and keep checking every 15 minutes.

4. Let the cake cool completely in the tin on a rack.

5. Pour the glaze over the cold honey bee cake;

6. Divide the marzipan into 6 even pieces and shape them into fat, sausage-like bees' bodies, slightly tapered at the ends
