    This cake is delicious and like another reviewer mentioned, the mashed bananas do produce an almost "banana bread" type cake, but much lighter and moist do to the cake flour.

    I also followed another reviewers instructions and used the coconut custard as a filling for the cake which seemed much better than using as a frosting.

    I made this into 3 layers and in between each layer i placed candied bananas, as well as dusted the outside with coconut.

    A+

    Very tasty. Glad I read the reviews first as I wouldn't have thought to make a Chocky Ganosh. I didn't let the custard set enough, but it still turned out quite well.

    I made this cake for a dinner party. Instead of using the custard for the frosting I filled the custard in between the layers with the bananas and then made a chocolate ganache to go over the top. Like a Boston Cream pie. Everybody loved it.

    The cake is good, but takes alot of preparation. In order to get the custard "frosting" its a trick too and can be messy. I reccommend for a kick to add some shredded sweetened coconut into the batter, it brings the coconut into the mix a bit more. I was hoping for more of a "cake like" taste, but it really all and all tasted like bannana nut bread with a slight twist. The flavors come out well, and it is incredibly moist. Oh, and the custard has a very light and unique flavor. Overall the cake was good, but it looses a star for all of the work you have to put into it.

    My family was blown away after tasting this delectable cake! The cake is super moist and the custard and bananas are a perfect accompaniment! Please do try this cake. It is very easy to prepare although it does take some time.
