OK- I've not done one, either, but I feel badly that nobody's jumping to your rescue. Here's what I've read about doing a Banana Split (I almost abbreviated it, until I realized it would be BS) show.
Make a sheet of brownies or cake in the large bar pan to show stoneware.
Use the chopper to chop nuts, cookies, etc. for toppings.
LOTS of SA to hold toppings, and even to eat out of.
Egg slicer to cut bananas (then they're already in bite-size slices)
EAD for whipped cream
Just set things out and let people make their own! You know that once they play with the products, they'll want them all.

go under "files" here and search for Banana Split and it will pop right up... PM me if you cannot find it and I"ll post it ... well, never mind... I'll just post it... 
BANANA SPLIT POEM
Your host tonight will be the judge,
But I’m the one who brought the fudge
And made all the topping too
To make a delicious dessert for you.
Now look at your bananas
And give yourself 4
For having a banana with
10 spots or more.
Now if your banana is a vibrant green
Give yourself a count of 16.
And if yours is the longest one
Give yourself 21.
But let’s be kind
To the one most short
And give her 10 points
For being a sport.
A yellow banana’s
The best to eat.
It will give you 10 points
Which is a treat.
Now if yours is bruised,
Softened or brown,
Deduct 2 points,
What a let down.
The one who has the longest stem
Gives you easily another 10.
But if your stem is tattered or broken
Take 2 points as a little token.
If it is a high score
You’re looking for
Booking a show
Gives you 30 more.
Now count your points
And add up the score.
The one with the most
Is who we’re looking for.

Look for ice cream nachos - did this at our last cluster meeting! Cinnamon-sugar sprinkled on tortilla that has been wet on 1 side, brushed with water. Then take spoonfuls of icecream you have already portioned onto your Chilzanne rectangle server. Then add ice cream toppings. Be sure to shave chocolate over everything at the end. Serve - and stand back... guaranteed they 'll lick the plate clean.
God Bless and take Care!
