Step 7: Serve
- Slice the cake and serve it plain or with a dollop of whipped cream, a scoop of vanilla ice cream, or fresh pineapple chunks for added flair.
Tips for Success
- Fresh Pineapple Juice : Use freshly squeezed pineapple juice for maximum flavor. Canned juice works too, but avoid sweetened varieties.
- Moisture Control : Don’t overbake the cake—it should be golden brown on top and spring back lightly when touched.
- Additions : Fold in crushed pineapple tidbits for extra texture or sprinkle coconut flakes on top for a tropical twist.
