Coconut Banana Cake With Passionfruit Frosting image

This is an old Aussie favourite, but tastes so good with the special frosting. My 4 year old doesn't just lick the frosting off, but eats the whole cake ... which makes a change!

This cake was a disaster! It didn't rise properly and the frosting was too runny.

I wasn't a big fan of this cake. The coconut flavor was too strong for me.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try it again with less sugar.
