Bee Sting Cake. Bienenstich Kuchen.
A brioche pastry dough cake, topped with Buttery Honey-Glazed Almonds...
...and filled with pastry cream.
What a sweet childhood memory, of living in Germany.
Coffee's ready. I have a slice waiting for you--and the recipe. I'm guest posting on "A Culinary Journey, With Chef Dennis", today. Please click here to see how I made it. A printable recipe card is at the end of this post.

Debby, you brought back memories for me also. I remember the year we lived in Germany and I came across this delightful pastry. The name caught my eye and I have loved it ever since. Thanks. Susan
ReplyDeleteOooo WANT THIS! Off to check it out!
ReplyDeleteBrioche + pastry cream + sweet almonds? Consider me "stung".
ReplyDeleteI have never seen this cake before. Interesting name. Looks perfect.
ReplyDeleteMmmmm....this sounds wonderful. I would love to be enjoying a slice right now!
ReplyDeleteYum! Love the creamy center. Going to check out the recipe...
ReplyDeleteDebby, I enjoyed "meeting" you on Chef Dennis' blog and the memories and recipe in your guest post there -- thanks so much! (Sorry this is after the fact, but it's been a busy month.) Happy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteMade this cake and never got to have a piece. It was eaten by everyone else in about a half hour. People had more than one piece. Everyone raved about it. People asked for the recipe.
ReplyDeleteAdded 3/4 cup of whipped cream flavored with vanilla, Gran Marnier and confectioner's sugar to the filling, because I didn't think there was enough, but otherwise followed thw recipe.
