Tips:
- Using fresh pineapple ensures the freshest and most flavorful result. However, canned pineapple can be used in a pinch.
- Make sure the pineapple is finely crushed or grated to blend into the cake batter evenly.
- For a more intense pineapple flavor, use extra pineapple juice in the cake batter. You can also add a teaspoon of pineapple extract.
- Creaming the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy is essential for a moist and tender cake. Make sure to beat them for at least 2 minutes.
- Adding sour cream to the cake batter makes it extra moist and rich. If you don't have sour cream, you can use plain yogurt as a substitute.
- To ensure the cake bakes evenly, make sure the oven is fully preheated before placing the cake in.
- Check the cake for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.
- Allow the cake to cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly.
