This cake was amazing! The layers were perfectly moist and the frosting was creamy and smooth. I loved the addition of pineapple filling, which gave it a nice bit of tanginess. I'll definitely be making it again soon.

This cake was a bit too rich for my taste, but I can see why it would be a hit at a party. The layers were dense and the frosting was thick, but I would have preferred a lighter, more airy texture.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, and the frosting was a bit too thick, but I can see why it would be a hit at a party. The layers were moist and the flavor was good, but I would have preferred a less sugary, less rich cake.

I love banana splits, so I thought I would love this cake. But I was disappointed. The cake was dry and the frosting was too thick. I would not recommend it.

I'm not usually a big fan of cake, but this banana split cake was amazing! The cake was moist and fluffy, and all of the different elements (the pineapple filling, the frosting, the chocolate ganache) came together perfectly. I'll definitely be makin

The cake was easy to follow. I made it with my 10-year-old son, and he had a blast helping me mix the batter and spread the frosting. It turned out so good that we'll definitely make it again together.
