TROPICAL DREAM CAKE
Well, you'd better kick off your shoes, grab a straw hat, your sunglasses and a Mai Tai with the frilly toothpick because you'll be off to the islands, mon! The name tells all! Wonderful cake for outdoors get-togethers, pool parties, pot lucks, and everything in-between. Rich with pineapple and a kiss of rum, this is a great cake. Decorate it with coconut, cherries, (frilly toothpicks) or anything else you can think of. I'd suggest a cream cheese frosting for this, as well as coconut.I have dyed the coconut to pastel colors for different occasions, holidays, etc. and it looks so pretty! If using frosting, make sure that the cake has been cooled to room temperature.

LUSCIOUS TROPICAL DREAM CAKE
Found this in the latest Kraft Food & Family magazine. Couldn't resist it b/c of the pineapple/coconut combo! Pina Colada, here I come! I will be adding some rum flavoring to both the cake and the topping along with coconut flavoring; and will also make this in a disposable foil pan for convenience.

PINEAPPLE DREAM CAKE
So easy to make from scratch in one bowl and delicious. Keep the cake in the refrigerator. This is a great make-ahead cake that also freezes well. (Cut into single-serving pieces and freeze in a single layer.) Thaw a piece at room temperature or in a microwave oven on DEFROST for one minute.
