Remove from the pan using a butter knife to loosen the cakes. Cool completely.
Cut in half and spread on each bottom of cake a little granadilla pulp.

You can use different fillings, for eg. Caramel and slices of banana or berries on top of the cream.
Tip:- you can also line the muffin pan with cupcake holders, pour in the batter and bake and once cooled simply peel off the holders and discard
