While hot, pour caramel into individual pudding molds (4 to 6, depending on size), running the caramel up the sides. In a saucepan over medium-high heat, reduce sauterne to half; cool. In mixing bowl, mix 1½ cups sugar, egg yolks, whole eggs with cooled sauterne and cream. Pour evenly into prepared molds. Bake in water bath 30 to 40 minutes at 350 degrees, until set. Cool then chill (make day before serving). To serve, unmold puddings on individual serving plates. On one side, spoon heavy cream. On the other, spoon passion fruit. Makes 4 to 6 servings.
