Step 1
1. Pour sugar (1 cup) into a deep saucepan, add honey and butter. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, until the sugar dissolves completely. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs with baking soda. Slowly add the egg and baking soda mixture into the boiling sweet mixture. Stir and continue heating until the mixture becomes foamy. Then remove from heat and gradually add the sifted flour. Knead into a thick, sticky dough. Divide into 10 equal parts.

2. On a floured surface, roll out each piece of dough to a 0.5 cm thickness. Place a plate on top and trim the edges with a knife so that our layers are even. Do not discard the trimmings. Roll the dough quickly. Bake the layers on a parchment-lined baking sheet at 200°C for 5 minutes.

3. Bake the trimmings in the oven together with the cake layers; we'll use them to make crumbs for decorating the honey cake. Prepare the cream: beat sour cream with sugar (one cup) using a mixer. The cream should be fluffy.
