Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
An Aussie tea time treat. Here in the tropics where the passionfruit grows plenty we enjoy this delicious fruit in ice cream, cakes,
drinks or just by itself. The fruit looks like a brown golf ball that is best eaten when the skin starts to wrinkle. You can buy passionfruit pulp in a tin if you don't live in the tropics.
