Inserting new data with associated HABTM

I have a form that contains a habtm input. The array sent into the
Business model on an insert looks a little like this:
[Business] => Array
(
[address_1] => xxx
[...other fields...]
[Profession] => Array
(
[0] => 32
[1] => 19
[2] => 30
)
)

Note there is no field for Business.id as it is a new record.

This command in the Business model:

$this->save($business)

...creates the new Business record, but not the Profession habtm
records.

$this->save($business['Business']) does the same thing.

I thought that when I save the containing model the habtm records
would also be inserted? What am I doing wrong?
