In the recipe below I've called the n'dizi crunchy banana as it's the only way I could get the data base to recognize it as the heading for that portion of this recipe.

- Make sure the cream, bowl, and whisk are chilled before whipping to help the cream whip up faster and more easily.
- Add a small amount of powdered sugar or vanilla extract to the whipped cream for extra flavor and sweetness.
- For a lighter and fluffier cake, use cake flour instead of all-purpose flour.
- Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this can result in a tough cake.

- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it.
