Let the cream thicken over a gentle heat, stirring with a whisk. Once the cream is thick enough, turn off the heat and transfer it to a bowl, cover it with plastic wrap and let it cool.

Now deal with the cake batter: heat the honey slightly in a small saucepan, then remove from the heat and add the butter and the yogurt 10. Separate the egg whites from the yolks and add the latter to the honey mixture.
    Mix with a whisk until you obtain a smooth mixture that you will transfer to a bowl. Now sift the flour, starch, cinnamon and baking powder separately.
    Add the powders to the honey mixture and stir to combine, scent with grated orange zest and set aside. Preheat the oven to 200°C )390 °F) in static mode, then take the egg whites kept aside and beat them until stiff with electric whips until they are nice and frothy,
    at which point add the mixture to the beaten egg whites and stir gently with a spatula from the bottom up until smooth. Grease and flour a 22-cm-diameter mold and fill it with the mixture, then take the custard and transfer it to a piping bag with a smooth nozzle. Make perpendicular lines with the cream on the surface of the cake so as to form a lattice 22. Now you can bake the honey cake in a static oven preheated to 200° C 390 °F for 40 minutes. When cooked, take your cake out of the oven, let it cool, then unmold it and dust the surface with powdered sugar before serving.
