- Brush the top of the cake generously with the leftover pineapple juice while still hot.
- Let cake cool before slicing the cake.
Hi Manjulaji,
Can we use a round cake pan instead of sqaure (about 9″ in diameter)? Also, I was able to get only unsweetend crushed pineapple. Would that work for the recipe or do I need to add sugar ? Please let me know the answer to these queries ASAP as I am planning to prepare this cake or my husband’s birth-day on Wednesday
)
Thanks.
A round pan would work, but generally you want to have the same thickness when poured.
8×8 = 64in^2
9 inch roiund pan = 63.62 in^2 so that should work well.
We doubled the recipe and used 9×13. (127in^2 is almost 2x64in^2)

Hi Manjula Ji,
Thanks for the recipe. I tried the cake and it came out very well (made it using the Condensed milk). I would like to see if we can replace condensed milk.
Could you please tell me if we can substitute Condensed milk with any other thing.
Thanks,
Preethi.
hello aunty,
the cakes looks amazing, but in india it’s not as easy to find canned pineapples. can you please suggest a method using real pineapples. and the proportions, also what to substiute for the pineapple juice?
and when you said no mixing, only folding, won’t that lead to lumps?
I am surprised you said canned pineapple not easily available in India.I am eating canned pineapple past 20 yrs.U’ll easily find them in confectioner’s shop and it is also easily available at grocerry stores.
Hello Manjula Aunty,
I tried this cake and it came out wonderful.can you plz let me know that if i can vary the pineapple for mango or berries and if yes then what do i need to use instead of pineapple juice .plz do reply .
Thanks,

Any baking powder substitute. Why cant we use eno.
All baking powders in India contain aluminum, apart from being bad for health(would definitely keep away from kids) also adds a tinny flavor to the end product.
Any substitutes
Thanks
