Good stuff.... it needs to stay in the fridge though becuse the bananas and creams/tapioca.
...I had a question...maybe some one can help me... how do you keep bananas perserved when it's in a filling like that? This was an experiment cake. and the bananas turned brown after 2 days :( any good perserve secrets ??
I don't know how to keep bananas from turning brown, but a little lemon juice is supposed to work for apples. If all else fails ... yellow food coloring?
The lemon juice trick works with bananas, too--and banana pudding looks soooo much more appealing after a couple of days when there aren't gross brown lumps in it.
