Merry Christmas
and Happy New Year
And a typical Danish Christmas treat
The Honey Cake
Have not tasted one of this for more than 40 years .
Our beloved Hasle Baker Stubb Holm used to make
a special Christmas cake.
It was a sort of Pepper cake but not brown like others
this were pale grayish with pink glaze.
His were made in different Christmas shapes . A nan, a horse and a tree.
Most were covered in dark pink sugar glaze.
The cakes were hard and difficult to bite in, baked from a very pale grey white dough
and then decorated with a pink sugar with fine details which in a thin white sugar
almost like Hungarian pepper cakes.
The horse which I loved the most was dipped in dark Chocolate
and edged with green colored Cocos.
Would love to know that old recipe .
The picture underneath shows danish Honey Cakes,
they are not anything like the Stubb-Holm Peppercake.
Though except his were also sold in Christmas time.
