Delicate, soft cakes soaked in the aroma of honey and boiled condensed milk or sour cream, covered with crumbs on top, golden color. Everything is nothing but everything famous cake"Honey". The taste, familiar and beloved by everyone since childhood, will not leave anyone indifferent, even despite the considerable calorie content of the honey cake. Each housewife has her own recipe for making this delicious cake, since to create it, you need a completely ordinary set of products that every home probably has. The shape of the confectionery can also be different, it all depends on the desire of the hostess.
Calorie honey cake, quite high - from 350 to 450 kcal, depending on the recipe. The more complex the composition, the more calories in the cooked product.
There is a lot of talk about the benefits and harms of the honey cake, on the one hand, the honey that is part of the cake is useful for its properties, and on the other hand, this product can cause an allergic reaction in many people. And the high calorie honey cake will not be useful for people who want to lose weight.
But despite this, sometimes it is worth pampering yourself. After all, the honey cake is very tasty, therefore, you should not limit yourself completely.
You always want to eat something sweet and pamper yourself with pastries that are pleasant in every way. But as soon as you look at the number of calories in a particular pastry, desire begins to fight with thoughts of losing weight. Let's start with the fact that the more ingredients in the cake, the more high-calorie it is. The same can be said about honey cake. If we use the classic recipe, then for 100 grams of cake we get 290 kcal. This is quite a lot, but if you remember the benefits of honey, which is part of the delicacy, then you can sometimes treat yourself to such pastries.
To begin with, let's say that a piece of cake weighing 100 grams improves efficiency well, and honey also has a beneficial effect on recuperation after any colds and viral diseases. There is one more plus of a honey dessert - honey restores the work of the cardiovascular system well, and also restores the strength spent during a hard day's work.
With so many pluses, only one minus is the high calorie content of this product. Is it worth it to think about if you want to be healthy and full of strength. Of course, it's not worth it, since any extra 100 grams donated by a piece delicious pastries can be quickly removed with a short run or exercise in the gym. Also, a spoonful of honey soothes and gives a good deep sleep, if you eat it at night.
For those who are too concerned about their figure, we can advise a small honey cake, baked according to the classic recipe with custard. Since the addition of some ingredients will add the calorie content of the finished product.
Let's take a look at some honey cakes and see how many calories each contains.
As already mentioned in the classic honey dessert with custard - 290 kcal per 100 grams.
When replacing custard with sour cream, we already get a cake that will add 313 kcal for one delicacy.
And this is only due to a change in impregnation, what will happen if you start adding a variety of additional ingredients to the cake?
Classic honey cake soaked with boiled condensed milk and covered with chocolate icing will add another 342 kcal to your daily calories in one snack.
When adding walnuts we get even more to the classics, since the nuts themselves are already a high-calorie product, and if you supply them with a honey cake, you can get 368 kcal for one piece of baking.
No matter how we count, and most importantly, do not add products, only more calories are obtained.
So in order to maintain a good figure and at the same time have a tasty life, you should pay attention to classic dishes without a variety of additives. If you want to please yourself, then it is better to wait for the holiday and bake a cake with many ingredients. Since a lot of people gather for a feast on a holiday, you will not get too big a piece, and most importantly, the cake will not be left for tomorrow. And you won't be tempted to enjoy baking alone.
If you decide to enjoy such pastries as a honey cake, then you should not drink it with sweet tea.
Sugar contains 398 kcal per 100 grams, while milk has only 47 kcal. It is better to whiten the tea with milk, as honey cake, even with custard, is sweet in itself.
Most fitness trainers will suggest you replace sugar with something lighter, so don't neglect their advice.
And also, you should not drink tea with a cake immediately after a meal, leave a treat for a snack for an hour or two after lunch or breakfast. At night, you should also not use even a small piece of cake, since in this case the hated kilograms will not take long to wait, but will appear in a couple of days, if not immediately.
As a person who has been constantly engaged in fitness for more than 10 years, I can give some tips that will help lovers of delicious pastries:
- Do not bake cakes the day before training, as not everyone can deny themselves a small treat. And even a small piece of cake can show not too pleasant numbers on the scales.
- Avoid sweet tea when eating any pastries.
- Bake honey cakes, reducing the size of the ingredients by half. Let it be better if it is small, and it will be possible to feast on it only once.
- A short walk home from work will get rid of those calories that you have accumulated with the help of honey cake.
- On the day when you plan to please yourself with honey pastries, it is worth preparing something lighter for the main meal, for example, vegetable stew or bigus.
If you follow these tips, then even the most high-calorie honey cake with many additional ingredients will not harm the figure, but it will help improve overall well-being and cheer you up.
