Steps:
- Place the flour, egg, and panko bread crumbs in 3 separate dishes.
- Dip the cheese cubes into each ingredient to coat, starting with the flour and ending with the panko.
- Preheat the canola oil in a deep fryer to 375 degrees F, (or in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan, pour enough oil to fill the pan about a third of the way. Heat over medium heat until a deep-frying thermometer inserted in the oil reaches 375 degrees F.) If you don't have a thermometer, a cube of bread will brown in about 3 minutes.
- Add the breaded cheese to the hot oil, in batches, and deep fry until the cubes are crisp and golden.
- Remove the cheese from the oil and place on a paper towel-lined baking sheet to absorb the excess oil. Transfer the cheese to a serving platter, drizzle with the honey, and dust with the paprika.

Tips:
- Use a neutral-flavored oil for frying, such as vegetable or canola oil.
- Heat the oil to the correct temperature before frying the cheese. The ideal temperature is 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Fry the cheese in batches so that it doesn't overcrowd the pan and cook evenly.
- Don't overcook the cheese. It should be golden brown and melted on the inside.
- Serve the cheese immediately with your favorite dipping sauce.
