• 100g honey
• 3 eggs
• 600g flour
• 10g soda
• 3g citric acid
• 800g sour cream

Preparation

1. For cream and cakes, we will need caramelized sugar. To cook it, take a pot with a thick bottom, sprinkle 200 grams of brown sugar and put the pan on a medium fire. Tilt the pan in different directions every few minutes so that the sugar melts evenly.
   
   
   
   
2. Melt 170g of butter and mix it with honey. Add this mixture to the caramel.
3. Wait until the mixture cools, add eggs and 300 grams of flour. Diligently stir everything to a homogeneous state. Now you need to add soda and citric acid, mix thoroughly and pour out the remaining flour.
   
   
   
   
4. Leave the dough to cool for 10 minutes. Liquid dough will thicken a little during this time. After that, divide the dough into 8 parts, each of which must be rolled into a rectangle and baked for 6 minutes at a temperature of 180 degrees.
   
   
   
   
5. Now gently trim each crust and grind the trimmings into a crumb.
6. You can cook the cream in parallel with the crusts. To do this, mix 800 g of sour cream and 200 g of brown sugar. Put the container on the water bath. For 1.5 hours, the sugar will melt and you can remove the cream from the fire and add 180 g of butter.
   
   
   
   
7. Lubricate each cake with oil and leave to soak for at least an hour. After that, carefully cut each cake into strips. The strips should be the height you want the cake to be. A height of 7 cm will be just right.
   
   
   
   
8. The most interesting and complex begins. You'll shape the cake. To do this, take a tall stack or other object suitable in shape. Start wrapping this object in bars. The first crusts are likely to crack, but the wider the circle becomes, the better the crusts will lie down.
   
   
   
   
9. The second option of assembling the cake: roll all the cakes into one large roll and put it vertically, carefully trimming.
10. The cake should be infused in the refrigerator at night. If you used the second option, wrap the roll tightly in film so that the cream does not leak.
    
    
    
    
11. Take the cake out of the fridge, grease it with cream and sprinkle it with crumb. Bon appetit!
