Last week, I purchased one bottle of the local honey from the farms market. The honey tastes so great and I usually drink honey water in the morning! My mom told me that the warm honey water is actually good for the skin!! So, I normally have one bottle of honey in my kitchen!
Even though, the pure honey is good for health, but I still want to use it to do something sweet, delight, & moist for my afternoon tea at office!!
Here you go! I believe a simple slice of honey cake can be a great sweet for your afternoon tea at work! It is little sweet, healthy, and can totally re-refreshing you from a sleepy afternoon!!
