Honey Tips

Honey Bees Need Water

To keep their hives strong, beekeepers must place them in locations that will provide abundant nectar sources as well as water.

Directions

Cut cake into 1/8-1/4-inch thick slices. Arrange half of the slices on the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Overlap slices to completely cover bottom of pan.
In a medium saucepan heat preserves, honey and orange juice. Bring to a boil and simmer for 15 minutes. Spread half of the preserve mixture over pound cake, freeze for 10 minutes. Spoon ½ of softened strawberry ice cream evenly over pound cake. Arrange remaining cake slices over ice cream and spread remaining preserve mixture over pound cake. Spoon remaining softened ice cream evenly over the pound cake. Cover and freeze at least 8 hours or up to 3 days.
Before serving cake prepare sauce. Slice strawberries, mix with honey and lemon juice. Toss to combine and let sit at room temperature for one hour before serving.
To serve, let cake sit at room temperature for 5-10 minutes. Release springform, slice cake and top with strawberry sauce.
Tightly wrap any extra cake and return to freezer.
