Here's a traditional Bienenstich made with a yeast dough and filled with an unusual Caramel Custard Cream ... So Wunderbar!
Sent in by one of our Facebook fans, Christopher Matthes, who shared this photo of the one his wife, Heide, made for him.
This one uses a Brioche dough ... perhaps not a usual German yeast dough, but this sounds so wonderfully buttery and light. This is also definitely not a quick recipe, but with a bit of planning, it shouldn't be that difficult to make.
I'm writing it below, just the way Chris sent it to me!
Brad Made This as well ...
Another of our Facebook fans, Brad, sent in his photo of Bienenstich after following Heide's recipe. He also included several notes, that I'll include near the bottom.
I suggest you really do read them BEFORE you start baking.
Brad's Bienenstich ... German Bee Sting Cake ... so Wunderbar!
Thanks, Chris, for sending in this recipe. It's definitely on my to-do list. Perhaps I'll make it with my granddaughter when she comes over in a couple of weeks.
She's always wanting to make something different!

First attempt, Great. Increase caramel recipe for greater volume between layers.
I toasted almonds separate, mixed in bowl with honey then applied.
As mentioned in earlier message, caution where and how you add milk/cornstarch mixture to hot caramel. "frothing" I used a heavy-bottomed pan, worked great. Fortunately moved pan to center of our 48" range griddle which helped me recover fluids after "volcanic frothing".
The Bienenstich I usually make ...
The Bienenstich that I normally make is a quick one, that doesn't use yeast. Now, this may not be traditional, but it is wunderbar lecker! It certainly satisfies our need for German deliciousness!
Take a look at mine here and then decide which one of these delicious Bee Sting Cakes you are going to make!
An EASY raspberry cake, aka Himbeertorte??? Something that's so delicious, so scrumptious, so delectable and so pretty ... just can't be an easy recipe, can it? Or can it?
Rose's Linzertorte is one that has been passed down for generations. A great traditional German cake that's usually made at Christmas. However, it's too good just to save it for the holidays
Make this German Buttercream Cake that tastes just like Oma’s. So delectable and perfect for afternoon coffee and special occasions. Best part? It’s EASY!
