I stuck on the last step of the is question

A bit stuck

banana.py 
available = "banana split;hot fudge;cherry;malted;black and white"

sundaes = available.split(";")

sundaes2 = sundaes.join(", ")

menu = "Our available flavors are: {}."

menu = menu.format("sundaes2")

This challenge only requires 3 lines of code:

  1. available declaration line
  2. sundaes declaration line
  3. menu declaration line

I would delete the 'sundaes2' line- it's not needed; and you only need one line of code for 'menu': 

menu = "Our available flavors are: {}.".format(', '.join(sundaes))

The error is n the last line. Remove the quotes from around sundaes2
