Our lil' ladies have been ever so busy and as a result we've got lots of honey (with even more to come in the next few weeks!!!)

In every bee article we've read, they all say that you can use honey instead of sugar but does anyone know if it's a 1-to-1 swap and what about consistency etc.

I'm thinking, in particular, of a victoria sponge type cake - do I just replace the 175grams of sugar with 175grams of honey?

If so, won't it be a bit too sticky and gooey?

Any advice would be gratefully received as we are keen to do our ladies proud

i tried a banana and honey teabread as a practise run for a show last week.  that was very moist

recipe is identical to this (saves me typing it out!)

is your honey plane flavoured , why I'm asking is we bought some chestnut honey which is dark and tastes wonderful but is a bit strong to cook with so it just goes on yogurt at the moment .
