Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
- In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cloves, nutmeg, and cinnamon until thoroughly mixed together. In a separate large bowl, stir together the vegetable oil, 1 cup of sugar, and honey, and beat the eggs in one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the flour mixture, alternating with the coffee in several additions. Mix in the shredded apple, if desired.
- Transfer the batter into the prepared baking dish, and sprinkle the walnuts over the top of the cake. Bake in the preheated oven until the cake springs back when lightly touched with a finger, about 1 hour. Allow the cake to cool until warm, about 15 minutes.
- In a small saucepan, melt the butter, and whisk in 2/3 cup of sugar and the orange juice until the sugar has dissolved. Bring the mixture to a boil, and remove from heat, whisking constantly. Pour the glaze over the warm cake.

ORANGE-SPICED RYE HONEY CAKE
Honey cake emerges from its hibernation around the High Holidays in the fall, when honey and other sweet foods are eaten to usher in a sweet new year. But as much as this is an early fall cake for the holidays, its warming spices make it a perfect winter cake that works both for dessert and in the morning with a cup of coffee.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 350ºF. Generously grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with oil.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the 1 1/2 cups of oil, the eggs, sugar, honey, coffee, and orange zest. In a separate large bowl, whisk together the flours, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves.
- Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and pour in the egg mixture, then stir with a fork or a whisk until the batter is smooth and free of lumps.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 50 to 55 minutes, until set in the middle-the cake should hold firm when lightly pressed on top. Be careful not to leave it in the oven for too long or it will dry out.
- Let the cake cool in the pan for at least 30 minutes-1 hour for a Bundt cake (see note)-before very carefully inverting it and removing the pan. Slice and serve with fresh fruit and tea.

Steps:
- 8 SERVINGS 45 min PREP TIME 1 hr 20 min TOTAL TIME STEP 1 Heat oven to 325°F. Grease 9-inch round cake pan; set aside. STEP 2 Combine brown sugar, butter, 1/3 cup sour cream, 1/3 cup orange juice, honey and egg whites in bowl. Beat at low speed, scraping bowl often, until well mixed.

STEP 4 Combine all orange cream ingredients in bowl. STEP 5 Serve cake warm or cool with dollop of orange cream. Tip #1 - To make ahead, prepare cake as directed above. Cool completely; cut into wedges. Wrap individual wedges in plastic food wrap; place in freezer bag. Freeze until needed. Let thaw 30 minutes at room temperature. Prepare Orange Cream as directed above. Tip #2 - Top each serving with sweetened whipped cream. Beat 1/2 cup whipping cream in small bowl at high speed, scraping bowl often, until stiff peaks form. Beat in 2 teaspoons powdered sugar. Dollop whipped cream onto each serving. Sprinkle with ground cinnamon. Tip #3 - Another serving suggestion is to top each wedge of cake with scoop of vanilla ice cream. Drizzle ice cream with a small amount of honey or caramel sauce.
Tips:
- Mise en place: Before you start baking, make sure you have all of your ingredients and tools ready to go. This will help you stay organized and ensure that you don't forget anything.
- Use fresh ingredients: The fresher your ingredients, the better your cake will taste. If possible, use organic or locally-sourced ingredients.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cake tough. Mix the batter until the ingredients are just combined.
- Bake the cake at the right temperature: The cake should be baked at a moderate temperature (350 degrees Fahrenheit or 175 degrees Celsius) for about 45-50 minutes. Keep an eye on the cake while it's baking and use a toothpick to check for doneness.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help the frosting to set properly and prevent it from melting.
