Another simple to make, but beautiful dessert. You need to take firm but ripe bananas for it. Mini bananas are ideal: they look prettier. And stock up on different toppings: small candied fruits, coconut and almond crumbs, and special sugar beads, which are sold on confectionery websites, are good here .
