Syrup
-
While the cake is baking, make the syrup. In a small saucepan, combine the honey and orange juice and bring to a boil.
Reduce the heat and let the syrup simmer for 5 minutes.
Stir in the rose water and saffron, then remove from heat.
Final step

Once the cake is baked, use a thin wooden skewer to poke small holes all over the surface.
Pour the warm syrup evenly over the warm cake, allowing it to soak in.
Garnish with slivered pistachios and rose petals for an elegant finish.
Allow the syrup to fully absorb into the cake for a few hours before serving.
