Banana Apple Cinnamon Birthday Cake

 Banana Apple Cinnamon Birthday Cake

My office colleague ordered a cake for her boyfriend's birthday celebration.  For this special day, I made a banana apple cake, one of the best seller cake.  I made sure that this cake is loaded with mashed bananas and chopped apples spiced with cinnamon for an added flavor and aromatic taste.

A special cake for a very special day

Since this is a special cake, aside from having a great flavor,  I also put attention  to how it looks.  I accessorized it  with Arnott's Stikko milk vanilla finger wafers around the cake.  I also decorated it with white and dark egg shaped chocolates with almonds inside, thinly sliced almonds and crushed Graham crackers on top of the cake. A yellow ribbon around the cake made it more attractive.  LOOKS GREAT ! TASTE GREAT !
