Honeycomb Chiffon Pie

One of my most glorious pies ever.
Almost looks like real bees working away in their hive:)



One of my friends instantly guessed how the “honeycomb” is made. 
Yup, it’s just bubble-wrap indentations. Quite ingenious of the Pie Bible! 
The bees are chocolate-honey ganache with almond wings.



The honey–apricot chiffon was a marvelous combo, which was complemented well by the vanilla–nut crumb crust. It had almost a healthy, earthy taste (well, comparatively speaking!). The occasional smoosh and crunch of the chocolate bees were a nice touch, too.



And it wasn’t even the star of the show. We had a little baking party featuring banana bread, peanut butter brownies, and butterscotch blondies! (Major sugar rush just looking at the picture!) Sweets, wine, and conversation… What a nice way to spend a Sunday afternoon. I very well might miss Seoul when I leave!
