Hi Beth! Yes, I recommend refrigerating.

Hi K! Thank you! It honestly just takes lots and lots of practice (an patience). Making sure to knock any air bubbles out of the buttercream helps and using light pressure when smoothing the sides. Really though, the taste is more important than the look anyhow, so I wouldn’t get too hung up on that 🙂

I have been looking for a great banana cake recipe and this looks INCREDIBLE! I’ve been baking for a few years but have never achieved a pretty frosted cake. I’ve read over your instructions for frosting but was wondering if you have any advice and tips on frosting cakes because yours always look so beautiful!

Hi Sarah! I would use rum extract instead of the rum, but only 1-2 teaspoons or so at most as it is concentrated. Maybe start with less and add more if needed. Either leave the banana liqueur out or add 1/2-1 tsp or so of banana extract. I hope that helps!

Hey Olivia. This cake looks amazing. However can you sub out the alcohol. I know you can cook it out but the person who has requested a banana cake for their birthday is a reformed alcoholic. So I would not like to risk it.

Many thanks

All of your cake recipes look fantastic! I used to work in a private dining club where I frequently prepared Bananas Foster tableside. Our recipe included the juice of a half an orange and half a lemon. These were added before flambeeing. I think that the citrus really made the sauce. I’m going to make this with the added citrus. Thanks.

Hi DeAngela! Converting pan sizes is always tricky. Here are some sites I use as a guideline:
