  2. Whip heavy cream on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Combine softened cream cheese, honey, and sugar in a bowl and beat until smooth, about 3-5 minutes.
  4. Warm lavender, lemon juice, and vanilla in a small saucepan over low heat for 5 minutes, then strain and add to cream cheese mixture.
  5. Fold whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture in three parts until just combined.
  6. Pour the filling over the crust and smooth the top. Chill covered for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  7. Remove from springform pan, drizzle with honey, and garnish with lavender buds before serving.
