I'm not sure if I'll make these cupcakes again. They were a lot of work and the end result wasn't worth it.

These cupcakes were just okay. They weren't as moist as I was hoping for.

I don't know what I did wrong, but these cupcakes turned out dry and crumbly. I'm really disappointed.

These cupcakes were a disaster! The batter was too runny and the cupcakes didn't rise properly. I ended up throwing them away.

I had some trouble getting the ganache to set. I ended up having to refrigerate it for a few hours before it was firm enough to pipe.

These cupcakes were a little too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of bananas, but I really enjoyed these cupcakes. The chocolate ganache really balanced out the banana flavor.

I tried this recipe last night and it was a huge hit! The cupcakes were moist and fluffy, and the chocolate ganache was rich and creamy. I also loved the banana flavor.
