Mix the cream and honey in a bowl. Whisk softly for a smooth and silky consistency or use an electric mixer set at medium speed, to obtain a firmer cream. Remember, if you over-whip the cream, it will separate. If this happens, add 1 or 2 tablespoons of cream, and gently stir it in with a rubber spatula until it reaches a smooth consistency again. Store in a covered container in the refrigerator and try to eat it the same day, preferably within a few hours of its preparation.

Variations: The honey cream can be flavored with the addition of 1/2 teaspoon of any spice, like cinnamon, or any liqueur, like Grand Marnier. Also, the type of honey you use will influence the flavor of this dessert.
