Where to Get a Perfect Slice of Cake in London
"Although the closure of beloved restaurant Honey & Co after over a decade on Warren Street marked the end of an era, its coffee, cardamom and walnut cake is a timeless classic that endures at the new Bloomsbury location and the original Honey & Spice deli. Coffee and walnut is a classic British cake — the kind of bake that might appear at a National Trust property. However, cardamom coffee is a cornerstone of the drinks menu at Honey & Co, and so it made sense to Srulovich and Packer that the trinity of coffee, cardamom and walnut would make for a splendid cake. Two layers of rich, honeyed, slightly savoury sponge — fragrant with coffee and floral with cardamom — are topped with waves of coffee cream and toasted walnuts, resulting in a cake that is equally suited to being enjoyed at breakfast or elevenses, as it is at teatime or as a post-dinner dessert." - Emma Louise Pudge
