Does anyone have a good recipe for a banana cake filling? Someone requested it in a wedding cake. I'm not having much luck searching online..

I use regular bc with banana creme flavoring, or Lorann banana.

You can do a chocolate or strwberry filling; if you're torting maybe you can do both, they both compliment bananas.

Banana filling or banana cake with filling? I like to fill my banana cakes with Twinkie filling. If it's banana flavored filling you need, I'd add banana flavoring to buttercream.

what about a sleeve of banana filling some cake shop sells them. Just google the internet for fruit fillings

if you're looking for banana filling, this one is great. I don't use it as an icing, it's too chunky for me but it makes a fantastic filling. I usually add a little sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice to it as well.

if torting the cake a layer of chocolate gnache and a layer of peanut butter buttercream would be great

fluff buttercream or twinky filling would be yummy

sorry i wasn't clear.. i meant a banana filling. the couple originally asked for banana, strawberry, and raspberry to be put inside, but i think that's too much and won't work well together. then they wanted a bavarian cream with the fruit.. i'm not really sure where to go with this one. the cake is just going to be vanilla w/ vanilla buttercream and fondant.. any other suggestions on how to incorporate

bananas, strawberries and bavarian cream is really good actually. I didn't think it would be that great but I had a friends mother that insisted on vanilla cake, with a layer of cream and sliced strawberries and then another layer of cream with sliced bananas and then iced in whipped cream. It was really good. I would nix the raspberries though.

I have done the costco filling in banana cake and used banana pudding in it. So, it's like a banana mousse...very good! Sometimes I even slice strawberries on this, very good also.

I just had someone ask about a banana flavored cake with chocolate chips. Sounds like a weird combo to me but I guess some like it.

Here's a really tasty but simple version that I've tried:

7oz Marshmallow Fluff
1 package Banana Instant Jello Pudding Mix
1/3 C Milk

Make the instant pudding according to package directions, but with 1/3 C milk instead of the full amount required (add more in small increments if needed)

Use a mixer to combine the banana pudding with the marshmallow fluff.

It thickens some once placed in the refrigerator, and is a really nice consistency.

It also mixes nicely with strawberry filling to create a really yummy strawberry-banana split!!!

HTH,

i keep meaning to post this in recipes, it's the most delicious banana filling i've ever had - and it's incredibly simple! i found it years ago posted by Kim La but i actually just saw the same one posted somewhere else with no credit given. anyway, here it is:

Creamy Banana Filling

3/4 cup evaporated milk
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 egg yolks
3 tbsp butter

Cook above over medium heat. Stir constantly until thick 12-17mins. Add 1 mashed banana or 1/4 cup (I add at least double that), 3/4 cup chopped nuts (never used the nuts) and 1 tsp vanilla. Cool stirring occasionally until of spreading consistency.

thanks for all your help!! i'm gonna do some test runs and then see what the bride and groom think..
