Why can't we have 6 stars? ... Fantastic, great stuff. Served it HOT in a bowl with two scoops of vanilla ice cream and the carmal spooned over everything, WOW! I used dark brown suger for the Muscovado sugar and a 50 50 mix of honey and clear corn syrup for the Golden Syrup. AND I got to use my new digital kitchen scale. Other conversions were: butter is about one stick less three Tablespoons and used one cup of milk. 180 degrees C is 350 F

say again....can we not give 6 stars--delicious, not as rich as I expected,just sweet enough..easy to prepare (after you do conversions)Ii fed 8 guests with it and it would have fed probably 6 fully! definitely serve warm, ice cream optional!

Fantastic, the boys loved it. I used 2 tbs honey and 2 tbs of maple syrup instead of the golden syrup. I was really surprised that you could still taste the banana in the cake. Will make again for sure, but serve smaller portions next time.

This was very easy to make and tasted delicious. Even my fussy 15 year old daughter loved it (didn't tell her it had banana until after she had tried it as she is not a fan of fruit!)I served this with ice cream but it would be good with custard as well. I might even try other fruit next time. This will be used again and again. Thanks Marie Alice.
