Caramel Macchiato Marble Cake image

My friend Ruby got this recipe at Starbucks. We used instant espresso instead of Starbucks Via as the recipe requires, you can also substitute instant cappuccino in mocha or vanilla...delicious. Also original recipe called for evaporated milk in the frosting but I substituted half and half which gave it a better flavor.
