Food shouldn't suck, even if it's on a stick.

This dessert on a stick might have a lot of steps, but it elevates the humble banana split into art, which is where it really belongs.

Step 1: Scoop the ice cream balls

Scoop out little balls of ice cream.  I used vanilla bean, but you can use whatever flavor you want.  Use a high quality ice cream without too much air volume.

Stick the ice cream balls back in the freezer.

Maybe use the caramel recipe from here ( http://www.instructables.com/id/Caramel-Recipe/#step1 ) for a truly amazing caramel on this desert

Fancy Dessert for the Mrs. at home! where do i get a mini blow torch O_O

I got my kitchen torch at Bed Bath and Beyond... I think it was about $10-15. There are nicer ones that work better for a little more money. I can't remember where we got Josh's little butane torch in the photo. For some reason, we seem to have several little torches...

This looks so delicious! Also, thanks for your comment :)

what is this I don't even
timothymh says: Aug 18, 2010. 9:39 AM
It's a banana split on a stick. That looks amazing. With a strawberry on top.
codongolev says: Aug 19, 2010. 5:46 PM
I know, it's just a little... how should I put it.... mind blowingly awesome.
timothymh says: Aug 20, 2010. 4:55 AM
That comment seems in the exact opposite mindset from your original comment. You used correct spelling and grammar, you understood what it was, and you were saying it was awesome. Interesting.
TendoQueen says: Aug 25, 2010. 4:28 AM
You missed the joke. It's a meme...:D
codongolev says: Sep 3, 2010. 9:12 AM
yeah. it's a bit hard to explain the meme. just like all other memes.

I hate bananas, but this is such a thing of beauty that I had to vote for it anyway. 8-)

I totally hope you win the Stuff on a Stick contest with this! It's gorgeous! - Pj
timothymh says: Aug 18, 2010. 9:39 AM
Looks amazing as I'm sure it tastes as well, but this is bugging me: How would one go about actually eating this?
supersoftdrink (author) says: Aug 18, 2010. 2:27 PM
It's easiest if you bite the drizzles first.
bleh5573 says: Aug 17, 2010. 4:59 PM
About how long does it take?
supersoftdrink (author) says: Aug 18, 2010. 2:26 PM
That depends on how good you are at multitasking, how many you're making, and whether you have a toddler and baby getting in the way... None of the steps should take very long.

Mmmmmmmm...
AbstractDragon says: Aug 16, 2010. 2:44 PM
Not only is the assembled result cool, you taught us how to make several things here that are cool either by themselves or as part of other dishes. Excellent 'ible!
Agent-51 says: Aug 16, 2010. 4:46 AM
"That looks like a naughty play toy" that is the first thing the wife said. I have the icecream balls ready to go for the construction tonight. they look good hope mine look as fine as yours

Truly impressive.
xplodvelt74 says: Aug 16, 2010. 12:24 AM
I really don't know what to say about that dessert. Especially at risk being banned from unaproppriate comments. I will leave comments to the opposite side. I prefer rather "traditional" banana-split dessert. Nice idea though.
kdrodgers says: Aug 15, 2010. 11:04 PM
This looks amazing!!! I'm not a fan of the banana split but seeing this makes me wanna give it a try!!!
matthewabel says: Aug 15, 2010. 3:38 PM
WOW. This is an amazing idea - you have my vote!

Nice! I love the whipped cream rosettes and sugar drizzles, working with cooked sugar is so much fun!
