They’re smaller, sweeter and tastier because they take longer to grow than their Queensland counterparts.

Paddle pops, boats and animals http://cuisine.com.au/recipe/Paddle-pops-boats-and-animals It's often hard to avoid the junk-food trap when planning a child's birthday party. Try placing a few healthy alternatives on the table - especially some disguised as junk - and watch the kids zoom in like a swarm of bees. Banana and vanilla cake http://cuisine.com.au/recipe/Banana-and-vanilla-cake Back in Sydney, Queensland bananas dominate the market. A former grower told me one of the reasons he got out of the industry was because Queensland could produce what the market wanted - bigger, cheaper bananas. While it takes 18 months for modest-sized fruit to ripen in the Nambucca Valley, the warmer Queensland climate can do it in 12, at the same time producing bigger, longer fruit. If this efficiency is at the expense of flavour, I'll choose smaller, tastier bananas every time.
