The base layer is a crumbly, golden brown cake with a rough texture, soaked in dark amber syrup that pools around the bottom. On top of the cake are several thin, round slices of banana arranged in a loose cluster.

On top, there is a layer of light yellow banana slices spread evenly, covered with a rich, dark brown sticky syrup that pools around the base of the slice on the plate.
