Tips

  1. To add a little more health to your sundae, consider choosing a low-fat or dairy-free ice cream.
  2. Refrigerate your bananas beforehand. This gives a slightly firm texture which contrasts well with the soft ice cream.
  3. For an extra touch of luxury, you can make your own chocolate sauce with cocoa powder, a touch of honey, and a splash of water.
