Rico's note: It takes more work than the other cakes in this collection, but the marbled effect is worth a photo.

Ingredients

96 g (3½ oz) almond flour (light batter)
60 g (2 oz) sweet cassava starch (polvilho doce) (light batter)
70 g (2½ oz) sugar (light batter) — no added sugar: 100 g erythritol (light batter)
1 tsp baking powder, light batter (5 g)
2 eggs, light batter (100 g / 3½ oz)
55 g (2 oz) coconut oil (light batter)
60 g (2 oz) unsweetened concentrated passion fruit juice (light batter)

In the no-added-sugar version, eating too much erythritol or xylitol can have a laxative effect.

Preheat the oven to 180 °C (350 °F) and grease a Bundt pan well.
Light batter: in a bowl, combine the almond flour, polvilho, sugar and half the baking powder.
