MAPLE WHIPPED CREAM & CARDAMOM CAKE
If you've never tried honey and cardamom together, I can't tell you what you're missing. The flavor combination was a random discovery in my early years of blogging, trying to reinvent the food wheel, but it was one of my best discoveries. Cardamom is such a delicious earthy yet sweet flavor. I think it's really an underappreciated spice here in the states. This honey cardamom cake will convert you in no time and the maple whipped cream is the perfect topping!
