  2. Pour the cold heavy cream into the chilled bowl.
  3. Begin whipping on medium speed until the cream starts to thicken.
  4. When soft peaks form, slowly add honey while continuing to whip.
  5. Increase speed and continue mixing until stiff peaks form.
  6. Stop immediately to avoid overwhipping, which can turn the cream grainy.
