Instructions
1. Mix the baking soda with the orange juice until bubbles form, and then mix all the ingredients except flour until uniform. At the end mix in the flour. The batter should be moderately loose, but not too loose.

Afterthoughts
- I am not crazy about honey cakes, but this one is really good. I suppose I would not have guessed that it has honey, had I not known.
- This recipe is very easy to make, and I love the fact that there is not much oil in it.

Lovely cake! Orange is one of my favorite flavorings for cakes.
I don't think I've actually ever tried a honey cake- I'll have to give this a go sometime.. it looks delicious.
I've never heard of a "honey cake" before despite its long history and traditions. This looks great! I have a weakness for baked goods. :)
I've never had orange and coffee together in a cake and am now intrigued by the combination! I too love the fact that this hasn't got much fat in it - just the kind of sweet treat I need at the moment....
