Cranberry Pudding Ingredients
Cranberry Caramel Ingredients
Instructions
Step 1
In a mixing bowl, combine sour cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Stir well until smooth.
Next, add the eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. The mixture should be creamy and well blended.
Step 2
In another bowl, mix all-purpose flour, honey, and sugar. Melt the butter and add it to the dry ingredients.
Beat the mixture until a thick batter forms. This batter will be the base for your cake.
Step 3
In a saucepan, combine cranberries, sugar, and water. Bring the mixture to a boil, allowing the cranberries to soften.
Once boiling, mix in cornstarch to thicken the pudding. Stir continuously until it reaches a pudding-like consistency.
Step 4
In a small saucepan, combine sugar and water. Cook over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves.
Allow the mixture to boil without stirring until it turns golden in color. Remove from heat and quickly stir in the cranberries before it hardens.
Step 5
In your dessert box, layer the honey cake as the base, followed by the sour cream custard. Pour the cranberry pudding over it, and finish with a drizzle of cranberry caramel.
Chill the dessert box in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving.
Servings
When it comes to serving, the Cranberry Honey Cake Box shines even more! Consider presenting it on a beautiful plate, garnished with fresh cranberries or mint leaves for an extra splash of color. ✨
If you’re hosting a gathering, pair it with cups of steaming herbal tea or coffee. 🍵 ☕ The contrast of warm drinks and the cool creaminess of the dessert creates a delightful experience.
For a fun twist, serve it with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side. 🍦 The combination is simply divine! Don’t forget to snap a picture of this stunning dessert before it disappears – it’s just that photogenic! 📸
Equipment
Use various sizes for mixing ingredients. A larger bowl is essential for combining the batter without spills!
A good whisk is vital for aerating cream and mixing batter. Opt for one that feels comfortable in your hand.

Variations
Want to switch things up? No problem! For a gluten-free version, swap out regular flour for almond or coconut flour. Just make sure to adjust your measurements accordingly! 🌾
If you're looking for a vegan option, substitute eggs with flaxseed meal mixed with water and use plant-based milk in place of dairy. 🌱 These alternatives will keep your dessert just as delightful while catering to dietary preferences!
