Whip up this fruity cake, with flavours inspired by our iconic Passion Star Martini cocktail cans. Dive into a light passion fruit sponge, soaked in a passion fruit and Prosecco syrup, then filled and topped with smooth vanilla and lemon buttercream, crowned with fruity meringue kisses. Serve with a glass of Passion Star Martini – because it would be rude not to!
