Caramelised White Chocolate and Passion Fruit Cake

Safira
Something magical happens when you caramelise white chocolate. It turn into the most glorious, creamy, delicious Dulce de leche caramel flavoured golden dreamy chocolate. I have used it in this Caramelised White Chocolate and Passion Fruit Cake and the flavours work amazingly well together.
