GIANT BANANA SPLIT 2010

Once again the Giant Banana Split in the Ammanford Arcade was a massive success. A large crowd gathered to take part in the Giant Banana Split at the Arcade on Friday 5 March.
The event was part of the Fairtrade Fortnight. This is the second time for us to build a giant banana split along the length of the shopping arcade in Ammanford and this year's was just as successful as the last one.

We'd like to thank the local businesses who supported us, namely -Maria from Franks for the ice cream, Viv at LBS for helping us with the guttering and Anthony at COOP for the banana's.

Also we had a solar powered cinema showing films about fairtrade.

In order to build the banana split we first had to cut up the bananas and place them on the trough, then add the ice cream, follwed by cream and chocolate sauce. After this everyone grabbed a spoon and tucked in!
What better way to celebrate fairtrade fortnight and at the same time raise awareness about goods that treat farmers and traders fairly.

BANANA SPLIT MASNACH DEG 2010

Unwaith eto daeth tyrfa fawr i gymryd rhan y y Banana Split enfawr yn yr Arcade ar Nos Wener 5 Mawrth.
Rhan o ddigwyddiadau Pythefnos Masnach Deg oedd hon. Dyma'r ail waith i ni adeiladu Banana Split enfawr ar hyd yr arcade ac roedd un eleni yr un mor fawr a llynedd.
Hefyd roedd yna sinema fach a oedd yn cael ei rhedeg gan ynni'r haul yn dangos ffilmiau am Fasnach Deg.
Hoffai'r trefnwyr ddiolch i'r busensau lleol am eu cefnogaeth yn enwedig  -Maria o gwmni Franks am yr hufen ia, Viv yn LBS am ein helpu gyda'r cafnau ac Anthony o'r COOP am y bananas. 

Er mwyn creu'r banana split yn gyntaf roedd angen torri'r bananas a'u gosod ar y cafn, wedyn ychwanegu'r hufen ia, yr hufen a'r saws siocled - wedi hyn roedd pawb yn gafael mewn llwy a bwyta!!
Pa well ffordd i ddathlu Pythefnos Masnach Deg ac ar yr un pryd codi ymwybyddiaeth am nwyddau sy'n rhoi cyfle teilwng i ffermwyr a masnachwyr.
