Honey Help.
The Los Angeles Times food section (online) often offers beautiful recipes. I was hoping to try my hand at this recipe:

It calls for wildflower honey, preferably free range. Will it really make a difference what kind of honey I use? I read that different honey's have very specific tastes, but in terms of this tart- can I just use the jar of Goya honey (comb included) that I just purchased?
Heather Honey = Scottish Crack?
I was recently in Ireland and picked up a jar of heather honey from a burnt out American hippie/beekeeper. He insisted that heather honey was the equivalent of edible gold and that he ate 2 pounds of the stuff a day when he first emigrated to Scotland. The hippie was absolutely right. It's like honey crack with a truly unique and utterly addictive suppleness.
Does anyone know a bit about the distinguishing qualities of this honey? Maybe a little history, experience or insight to heather honey harvesting?
Honey cake (or other dessert) recipes?
Rosh Hashanah is coming up soon, and I volunteered to make dessert for my family's dinner. It's tradition to incorporate honey into certain foods like challahs and dessert (and to eat it with apples) to ensure a sweet new year. I found a great-looking Joan Nathan Apricot Honey Cake recipe, but does anyone have a great recipe for a dessert involving honey? Nondairy is preferable since some family members are kosher and you know we're having turkey and brisket for dinner!
