Yet another year flies by for my Mum’s birthday, this year it fell on Shravan so it was an excuse to try an another eggless cake recipe!…this one had a hint of passion…the passion fruit kind. I love the taste of passion fruit it’s just so delicious and exotic. I remember when I was little and I used to loveeeeee drinking Rubicon passion fruit drink, now my taste buds have slightly changed even though I still would drink it. I prefer mango and passion fruit smoothie or passion fruit yoghurt, sooooooo delicious.

This Passion fruit topping was really easy to make and created an amazingly delicious topping to the cake. It’s better to use ripe passion fruit as they can taste quite tart. I used two to decorate the cake, I wasn’t sure if I would need five as you don’t really get much, but what I realised is it’s not too bad and two was plenty.
