Tips:

  • Use fresh pineapple: Fresh pineapple gives the cake a bright, tropical flavor. If you can't find fresh pineapple, you can use canned pineapple, but be sure to drain it well.
  • Toast the coconut: Toasting the coconut adds a nutty flavor to the cake. You can toast the coconut in a skillet over medium heat, or in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 minutes.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter can make the cake tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the cake until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean: This usually takes about 30-35 minutes. If you're using a convection oven, you may need to reduce the baking time by 5-10 minutes.
  • Let the cake cool completely before frosting it: This will help to prevent the frosting from melting.

Conclusion:

This Pina Colada Cake is a delicious and refreshing dessert that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. If you love piña coladas, you'll love this cake!
