Tips:
- Use fresh pineapple for the best flavor. If you don't have fresh pineapple, you can use canned pineapple, but be sure to drain it well.
- Toast the coconut flakes before adding them to the cake batter. This will give them a richer flavor and make them more crunchy.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the cake tough.
- Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting to set properly.
- If you don't have time to make the frosting, you can use a store-bought frosting instead.
