GREAT cake. Made it for my mother's birthday cake. Only changes were I added a few pecans to the whipped cream icing with the crushed pineapple. Everyone loved it.

Wonderful and easy summer cake! I used a 9 X 13 pan for convenience and it turned out perfect! I will definitely be making this again. Thanks!

Light and delicious, it turned out wonderfully. Next time, I'm going to glaze it with some coconut rum, heated in a pan with simple syrup. I suspect that would give this even better flavor.

My sister-in-law comes from S. Carolina and I first tasted this cake at her place. This recipe comes close to hers. I should have read the reviews before cooking, then I would have cooked the layers less. My cake was bit dry. Nevertheless, my husband loved this cake so I will be making it again. Thanks.

I loved this, It tasted fruity and fresh. I made the frosting early and frosted it before we ate it. The kids didnt want to try it , I cant understand why, what kid dont like cake? I made them sit and eat it. LOL What do they know? Anywho, It was too funny a total stranger at the store seen me buying manderin oranges and asked if I was making Pig Pickin Cake. I knew it was gonna be good.

I made this for an office birthday. It was more than a hit. I only made one change. I was giving my son a bath while the cake was in the oven and I did not hear the timer go off. I was distraught that I had ruined the cake. It was not burnt but I was afraid that it would be too dry. I took the drained pineapple juice- I am lucky I had not thrown it out- and cooked it on the stovetop with 1/4 cup of sugar right up to the boiling point and let it cool for 20 minutes. I poked holes in the cake with a fork and poured the juice mixture over the cake before frosting it. I refrigerated it overnight and took it to work the next day. It was awesome- not dry at all and the tropical flavors of the cake were so refreshing.

I have made this cake several times, its a super moist cake with that light not too sweet taste. Everytime I make it everyone comes back for second helpings. I usually just use a 9x11 pan instead of 3 8" pans and 8oz of cool whip. It's easier too!

I was surprised to find this recipe! My mom made these cakes when I was little, and I haven't had one in years! I made this cake for my husband last week for the first time...it's awesome! Everything I remember it being. The only thing I would change is decrease the baking time on the cakes, because as thin as they are, they dry out. I bake them for 15 minutes, and they come out perfectly! My husband loves this cake!

I was looking for a recipe for my grandmother's cake, and this was it! I called her and she confirmed it's what she used to make. This cake is delicious, easy to make, and elegant! The recipe is perfect as is, but is fun to experiment with as well. Thank you for this great recipe.
