Recipe: Jordan Rondel’s orange and passionfruit cake with passionfruit cream cheese icing

This cake is light, wholesome and not too sweet. It contains pureed oranges and a generous helping of ground almonds to replace the flour. The addition of seasonal, tropical-tasting passionfruit elevates this recipe to something special.
