Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour a 9x13 inch cake pan.
In a large bowl, cream the butter and honey together until light and fluffy. Beat in the eggs one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
Combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt; stir into the creamed mixture alternately with the milk. Spread evenly into the prepared pan.
Bake for 35 to 40 minutes in the preheated oven, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the cake comes out clean. Allow to cool before serving.
