A Passion for Passion Fruit

One of my favorite fruits, is passion fruit. I love how tropical the flavor is. I finally had some fresh ones in Jamaica this past June. They were more tart than I had imagined but still very tasty.
So when I made coconut cupcakes recently, I figured what better to pair with this tropical flavor than passion fruit? Of course, there are no passion fruit in supermarkets up here in New England, so I settled for passion fruit concentrate and made a buttercream with it. The coconut cupcakes were a recipe from Martha's cupcake book. I scored this on sale at Homegoods a couple weeks ago.

 

And here they are:

 

Mmm. Takes me back to Jamaica.
