I think this recipe needs more pineapple. The filling was a bit bland.

This torte is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still a good recipe.

I'm not a big fan of pineapple, but this torte was surprisingly good. The cake was moist and fluffy, and the filling was tangy and sweet. I would definitely make this again.
