Steps:
- Preheat oven to 300°F. Coat a 10- inch (10 - 15 cup) bundt pan liberally with nonstick spray. Alternately you can coat the pan with butter/shortening and dust it with flour or powdered sugar, tapping off excess. Set aside.
- In the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment mix the butter and sugar together on medium speed for 3 minutes, until fluffy and pale in color. Add in the eggs and extract(s), mixing for 1 minute until smooth, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary.
- Turn mixer to low and add in the flour and buttermilk in alternating portions until just combined, beginning and ending with the flour.
- Spread the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 1 hour 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 20 minutes, and then invert the pan onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- To prepare the frosting, in the bowl of your stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, mix the butter and honey together on medium speed for 1 minute, until smooth. Turn the mixer to low and slowly add in the powdered sugar. Once it's all added in, turn the mixer up to medium and beat for 30 seconds until creamy and smooth, scraping the sides of the bowl as necessary.
- Spread or pipe the frosting onto the top of the cooled cake. Top with berries if desired.

Steps:
- Beat butter at medium speed with an electric mixer until creamy. (The butter will become a lighter yellow color; this is an important step, as the job of the mixer is to incorporate air into the butter so the cake will rise. It will take 1 to 7 minutes, depending on the power of your mixer.) Gradually add sugar, beating at medium speed until light and fluffy. (Again, the times will vary, and butter will turn to a fluffy white.) Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating just until yellow yolk disappears.
- Add flour to creamed mixture alternately with milk, beginning and ending with flour. Beat at low speed just until blended after each addition. (The batter should be smooth and bits of flour should be well incorporated; to rid batter of lumps, stir gently with a rubber spatula.) Stir in extracts.
- Pour into a greased and floured 10-inch tube pan. (Use vegetable shortening or butter to grease the pan, getting every nook and cranny covered. Sprinkle a light coating of flour over the greased surface.)
- Bake at 300°F for 1 hour and 40 minutes or until a long wooden pick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pan on a wire rack 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from pan, and cool completely on a wire rack.
