This is a new kind of honey cake for Rosh Hashanah. I have made it square, but you can make it in 8-inch round pans too. I like to decorate the sides of the cake with candied orange slices (recipe below) but quicker options are sliced almonds or chopped pistachio nuts. Decorate the top with sliced berries, but always wait until just before serving so the fruit doesn’t bleed onto the cream.

I actually succeed in turning quite a few people on to my honey cake. Mine is moist and spicy and easy to love; I trust it will make you forget all the indignities of past dried-out and brittle honey cakes. I make it several ways, all scrumptious, but this is one of my favorite. The secret ingredient, orange marmalade, was shared by my dear friend Leah.

I've been making this honey cake for years now. But a happy accident several years ago has improved the cake. My sister make homemade etrog marmalade one year and gave me a jar. I substituted her marmalade for orange marmalade when I next made the cake. A dear friend makes homemade etrog liqueur, which I then drizzled over the cake. The next year my friend gave me the boozy pulp from when the liqueur was decanted. (Making the liqueur takes months of steeping and waiting.) I froze the pulp and defrosted some to add to the cake. Because the etrog has been shredded very fine, it basically disappears into the cake but adds a little texture and a lot of flavor. Although it was steeped in alcohol, it does not taste overly strong. If you have etrog liqueur, it's wonderful to drizzle over the cake before serving. I've also drizzled Single Malt Scotch over the cake with good results. The men at the table appreciated the smokey flavor and said it was like having a cake and a l'chaim at the same time. This cake freezes very well.

This easy recipe calls for using coffee (it may be decaf). You may also add nuts or chocolate chips but they do fall to the bottom. It is very loose when the ingredients are mixed together, do not worry it will harden. Do not over cook it is quite moist.
