This super moist PINEAPPLE CAKE recipe is the BEST I've ever tried!

RECIPE: cakesbymk.com/recipe/the-best...
SHOP: www.amazon.com/shop/cakesbymk
This super moist pineapple cake recipe is the best I’ve ever had (and I don’t use the word ‘best’ lightly)! It’s made up of soft pineapple cake layers, filled with a pineapple cake filling, and topped with a stabilized pineapple whipped cream frosting. It may sound fancy and complex, but trust me when I say that each element of this cake is SO EASY to make!
INGREDIENTS:
For accuracy, I would recommend using the gram measurements provided as those are the exact quantities I use. Cup measurements are given as estimates (based on US cup measurements) to make it easier for those who do not have a scale.
Pineapple Cake
▢2¼ cups (270 g) flour - plain, all purpose flour
▢¼ cup (25 g) cornstarch - also known as cornflour in some countries
▢2 tsp baking powder
▢½ tsp baking soda
▢½ tsp salt
▢1¼ cups (250 g) white granulated sugar
▢3 large eggs - room temperature. I use size 7 eggs
▢¾ cup (160 g) unflavoured vegetable oil - I use canola oil
▢2½ cups (566 g) canned crushed pineapple - in pineapple juice (not syrup). 20 oz can in the US.
▢1 tsp vanilla essence/extract
▢1½ tbsp (20 g) fresh lemon juice
Pineapple Cake Filling
▢¾ cup canned crushed pineapple - in pineapple juice (not syrup).
▢¼ cup (50 g) white granulated sugar
▢¼ cup (25 g) cornstarch
▢¾ cup (175 g) milk - full fat
▢1 tbsp (15 g) fresh lemon juice
▢¼ cup (56 g) unsalted butter - cold and cut into cubes.
▢1 drop yellow gel food colour - OPTIONAL (see note 4 on blog post).
Pineapple Whipped Cream Frosting
▢1 cup (225 g) mascarpone - cold. See note 1 on blog post if you don't want to use mascarpone.
▢½ cup (55 g) icing sugar - also known as powdered sugar or confectioners sugar
▢1 tsp vanilla essence/extract
▢1½ cups (335 g) whipping cream - cold, minimum fat percentage of 34%
▢½ cup (112 g) canned crushed pineapple - with the excess pineapple juice removed (see note 2 on blog post).

The cake looks amazing! Can this cake along with any of your others be baked in a bundt pan?

[@mariatheresaquindo4990]

Hi MK, I can't find crushed pineapple with juice. Can I use in syrup instead? Thank you

[@charmainmasheck2141]

I love it❤

[@HillcrestVBS]

I made this cake twice. First time made quite a few accidental mistakes. (Like accidentally used buttermilk instead of whole milk in filling and forgot to add pineapple to frosting before spreading it on cake.). The cake was still delicious and got lots of compliments. Then I decided it was so good in spite of mistakes that I should try it again. Second cake only slightly different from first in taste. (Maybe it should be called foolproof pineapple cake😅). Aesthetically, however, I found the frosting with pineapple in it very difficult to work with. Never did get anywhere near smooth. I attribute this to the pineapple, which did add to the overall flavor. Any special tips on working with this frosting?

[@cassiepereira4249]

Lovely Mk ❤ i would like to request you to please show How to make a WHITE CHOCOLATE MOCHA Cake pleasseeee ❤❤❤ reverse creaming method... As I've learnt it gives a better moist texture to the cake .. loads of love and hugs to u... In love n addicted to ur channel 😂

[@veronicaalmaguer1916]

Hi, I just made this cake ur recipe yesterday.. I just want to say that the cake is very moist and delicious but personally it can use some pineapple extract, & the frosting needs a little more sweetener. I would make this recipe again 👌., but I will add the 🍍extract to the cake & frosting..Thanks

[@user-yg7kb2nv8y]

[@Anu-iu1ig]

Hi. Can you help me to measure for a 1 kg cake?

[@moyatube755]

Hi Meryem. I was wondering how you put two cake one time on one oven? Or you are using two stove

[@CakesbyMK]

Heya! :) I put them both on the middle rack of the oven. If your oven isn't large enough then you can use two racks just make sure the top rack isn't too close to the top of the oven :)

[@quizzie8396]

Question, I don't have convection mode on the stove will the time or temp need to be adjusted?

[@CakesbyMK]

Heya! Yep so if you don't have a convection oven then bake at 175C/350F :)

[@TheSweeterSide231]

Please may I know why there is no milk? Or is not necessary?

[@deepikas9726]

Hi can we use freshly crushed pineapple?

[@Mdua80]

Yes
