A variation on Martha's birthday cake from the Martha baking bible aka baking porn. Filled with two layers of caramel buttercream (left over from Saturday's cake) and one layer of roasted caramel bananas (idea also stolen from Saturday's cake). Brought to a friend's birthday party and was a big hit. Only bummer was the meringue flopped a bit and the points weren't as high as I would have liked - also went overboard with my torch. That's two bummers, isn't it? I think I need a bigger star tip!

this photo needs its levels adjusted but it's a nice composition overall and most importantly, a tasty and gorgeous cake!
