Excellent cake! It tastes good just as the recipe states OR sometimes I add some more pineapple juice and some crushed pineapple between the layers as well.

I used a yellow "pineapple" DH cake mix and subbed applesauce for the margerine, and used 3 eggs. Baked in a 9 x 13 pan to take to a reunion. No icing for us, we made it into a strawberry jello POKE CAKE. WOW, it was a super hit. One of the best and easiest cakes I've ever made.

This cake is delicious. I baked it in a 9 x 13" pan so I didn't have a problem with it falling apart as other bakers had.

I made this recipe as written, but with only 2 layers; and while the flavor was VERY GOOD, the cake absolutely fell apart and crumbled when we tried to slice it. Maybe others' suggestions of adding an extra egg would have helped -not sure.

This cake went over very well with my family. I made the three layers as suggested and they were very thin..I might make only two next time. I added an extra egg to the mix and used a store bought cream cheese frosting then added flaked coconut to finish off the outside. My husband said it was one of the best cakes he's had and my father in law, who loves fruity cakes, thought it was great. Will definitely make this one again.

This is a very moist cake. It's almost *too* simple to make and everyone loved it. This is a lot better than any dry pineapple dessert I've ever tried.

This is a great recipe. I add marichino cherries and some madarin oranges to it too. I decorate cakes as a hobby and this is one of my most request cakes.

This is a very tasty cake. I also added sour cream instead of yogurt and baked it in a 13 x 9 pan. Yum!

A great cake! For convenience, I use a 9x13" rectangular pan, (still the same number of servings). If you DO want to be "elegant" use the 1, or 2, layer pans, suggested. But, however you bake it -- it tastes great!

Yum! Made it with my favorite butter recipe cake mix and it was a "touch of heaven" with a store-bought caramel frosting.

I think this taste has a great pineapple flavor! I wouldn't want it to taste solely like pineapple. It's a very easy cake to make, and very tasty. I don't see how this would be a 3 layer cake, though. I made mine only 2 layers, and I would've had to make very thin layers to get 3 out of it. My cake was also really really soft, not sure what happened, but I'm pretty sure it had to be something I did. It fell apart as I was frosting it(and yes, I did let it cool). I will try this again down the road and see what happens.

I loved this cake, and my family did too. The first time followed the recipe as it was on the computer, but the second time i added a extra egg, it made it thicker and even more moist. I LOVE this cake it is the BEST!

This cake turned out great! I used this easy recipe in a two-layer cake that was one layer coconut cake and one layer of this precious pineapple. Voila--a pina-colada! The pineapple taste is subtle but definite. The cake was for a large party, so I doubled the recipe with no problems. I left out the pecans, and didn't miss them. Moist and yummy!

Pretty good. Made it for my Oscar's party last night, so it was cute going with my theme. Not sure I would make it again as a party cake, more just a have at home cake. It was a refreshing change from my usual standards and had a light taste. Might have liked a bit more of a pineapple taste.
