Dark chocolate filled with banana ganache and caramel, what could be better! Try making for gifts or parties and, if you’re only making them for adults, you could add some rum to the banana ganache. We've decorated with white chocolate dots and dried banana chips, but feel free to experiment with other things like flicking the chocolate or using caramel chunks in place of banana chips. We’ve used a bar mould measuring 6cm x 13cm and about 7mm deep.
