Why This Passionfruit Slice Never Lasts Long.

This No-Bake Passionfruit Slice is the easiest way to enjoy tropical flavors without turning on the oven.

The biscuit and coconut base is perfectly sweet and chewy, balanced by a tangy passionfruit frosting that melts in your mouth. Every bite is fruity, creamy, and slightly nostalgic, a reminder of how effortless homemade treats can be.

I love making this slice ahead of time and keeping it chilled in the fridge. It’s the kind of dessert that’s always a hit at gatherings, yet so easy to throw together on a whim.

Whether you’re serving it for afternoon tea, a family treat, or just because, this slice never lasts long in my house!

Ingredients to make this no bake passionfruit slice are melted butter, passionfruit pulp, plain sweet biscuits, sweetened condensed milk, powdered sugar and desiccated coconut.

Can I use fresh passionfruit instead of canned?

Yes! You can use fresh passionfruit in place of canned passionfruit pulp with the same measurement. Simply scoop out the pulp from the passionfruit and use it as-is, there’s no need to strain the seeds unless you prefer a smoother texture. The seeds add a slight crunch and extra flavor, making the slice even more delicious.

What’s the best way to crush the biscuits?

The quickest and easiest way to crush biscuits is using a food processor, which ensures fine, even crumbs that bind well with the other ingredients.

If you don’t have a food processor, place the biscuits in a sturdy zip-lock bag, seal it, and use a rolling pin to crush them into small crumbs. This method works well but may leave some slightly larger pieces, which can add a bit of crunch to the base.

Can I make this passionfruit slice gluten-free?

While it’s possible to make this no-bake passionfruit slice gluten-free, simply swapping the biscuits for a gluten-free alternative will not yield the same result.

Gluten-free biscuits tend to absorb moisture differently, affecting the texture and consistency of the base. Because of this, I’ve developed a dedicated gluten-free no bake passionfruit slice recipe that adjusts the ingredient ratios for the best results.

  1. Where can I find deccixated coconut? Is it unsweetened? Why not shredded? E gf are the difference between the two?

    1. Hi Maria, desiccated coconut is also known as unsweetened finely shredded coconut, just make sure not to use the larger strips of coconut. Hope that helps! 🙂

    I have a question! Is 3/4 cup of condensed milk the same amount as a 395g tin? My plan is to use a whole tin [395g] of condensed milk so would I need to increase the quantity of the other ingredients?

    1. Hi Julie! No, 3/4 cup is 200g of condensed milk, which is a bit less than the full 395g tin. If you’re going to be using the whole can, I recommend making the recipe as it is, using the full can, then seeing and feeling the base’s consistency. If it’s too sloppy and you can see it doesn’t hold its shape when you roll some of it in your hand, I would add more desiccated coconut until you reach the right consistency. I hope that helps!
