Honeycomb Cake

This cake is also known as bika ambon, and is found from Indonesia to Vietnam. Growing up, one of Willscott's mom's patients from vietnam would make these occasionally. This recipe is somewhere in the general space of this cake.

Part of this recipe comes from a dutch-indonesian boxed variant. the rest comes from asian inspirations
