Combine milk, heavy cream and honey in a small sauce pot. Heat over low just until combined. Remove and allow to cool slightly, then whisk in eggs. Add salt, vanilla and cinnamon and mix. Pour over bread and mango mixture. Place small pats of butter on top of bread pudding and bake for 40 to 45 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from oven and allow to cool slightly.
