    Mashed banana oxidises and goes brown. It's also slimy. I don't think it would make a good icing.
    Bare cakes can be lovely when they are done well (look for naked cakes on Pintrest).
    Or something like this which is just edible flowers piled on maybe with a bit of jam to stick to.
    A swiss meringue icing would have less fat but just as much sugar.
    Why does it need to be sugar free? TBH I figure that if you're eating cake you may as well eat cake.

    Does it have to be a cake? What about a fruit torte?
