Stuff Happiness Is Made Of

Pineapple Upside Down Cake

This is one of my favourite cakes to bake because of its simplicity and lovely end result. The contrast between the pineapple and cherries is amazing! The only thing I don't like about it is that the cake tends to be a little bit too firm for my liking. However, it probably has to be since it has to support the pineapples. Shall experiment with other recipes to find a better texture.

The color in the middle is slightly paler because I baked this cake in a springform tin, as opposed to a closed tin which I should have done. As a result, some of the brown sugar and butter mixture leaked out, thus leaving not enough in the tin to brown the pineapple sufficiently.

Incidentally, this cake was baked for...fun. Just wanted to because it looks so good in the book that I was browsing through and decided to give it a go.

P/S: This is the last of my archived cakes (hopefully). Shall recommence baking tomorrow.
