Where to find ingredients
Eggs, margarine, sugar, flour, and baking powder are staples available at any local grocery store or market. For the passion fruit juice, look for fresh ripe passion fruits in the fruit and vegetable section of local markets like Shoprite or Pick n Pay; scoop out the pulp and blend it with a little water before straining to get the fresh juice required. If fresh fruit is out of season, you can find high-quality bottled fruit juice in the beverage aisle of larger supermarkets, ensuring it is pure and unsweetened.
