It seems that beautiful fondant cakes are getting more and more common not only for weddings but also for birthday parties, however sometimes the problem is that the cakes look beautiful but lack a good taste, they are either too sweet or too dry. Many times this cakes are beautifully designed but the taste is not that great, it is more a cake to look than to taste. I would like to share with you a recipe for a banana cake that you can also transform into a fondant cake that is both tasty and beautiful: My grandmother’s banana cake recipe.

This cake will be very tasteful and not dry at all, the secret of it is that the bread is made with banana and not only four and vanilla. I hope you enjoy it, here it is:

Ingredients:

2 cups of flour

1 tablespoon of baking powder

½ tablespoon of salt

150 gr. Butter
