Beat butter and sugar until fluffy (about 3-4 minutes). Add vanilla, sour cream, and oil, then mix until smooth. Add eggs in two batches, mixing each time until fully combined. In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually add half to the batter. Mix in mashed bananas, then add the remaining dry ingredients. Divide the batter between pans and bake for 24-26 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean. Cool on a rack. Make the Frosting: Beat butter and shortening until smooth. Add powdered sugar in batches, mixing until thick and smooth. Set aside 1 cup of frosting each for chocolate and strawberry flavors. To remaining frosting, add vanilla extract and mix until smooth. For strawberry frosting, add muddled strawberries and a touch of pink color if desired. For chocolate frosting, add cocoa powder and 1-2 tsp water to thin if needed. Make the Ganache: For chocolate ganache, heat chocolate chips and cream until melted and smooth. For pink ganache, melt pink candy melts with heavy cream, adding until pourable. Assemble the Cake: Layer the cakes with alternating vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate frosting. Drizzle chocolate and pink ganache over the top. Decorate with sliced bananas, strawberries, cherries, and sprinkles as desired. Slice, serve, and enjoy this whimsical treat! 🎉
