  Love this. We have it warm with cream on the day and with hot custard the next day. Great recipe.

  made this recently and it tasted great my main issue with it is that the cake measurements are quite minimal which resulted in the cake to be way too flat for my liking...will make it again but double cake measurements for a good size.

  i agree with Anna Banana about the sugar... especially the one for the topping.. that was wayyyyyyyy too much... the pineapple itself has a lovely sweetness .. i dont understand the extra syrup ... anw.. i used less sugar so i would advice everyone to do it.. Cheers,

  I used plums instead of pineapple as I needed to use them up. Also I only had dark brown soft sugar so had to use that instead of light brown. Really lovely recipe - turned out well.

  delicious! We used fresh pineapple, not canned and it was really tasty. Served with some chantilly (vanilla) cream absolutely gorgeous. Definitely one to make again! :)

  Enjoyed this cake. I made a few changes. I don't like cherries so used 4 fresh raspberries in the centre of each of the pineapple rings. I used fresh pineapple cut into rings but could only fit 3 on, my cake tin is the same size as stated. Also instead of syrup I pulped and sieved some pineapple and used the juice made. It came out really well, served hot with home made custard the first night, then creme fraiche and a few fresh raspberries on the side the second night.

  It's baking as I type this. Will let you all know how it turns out, I have left out the cherries as my partner hates them. Mixture from the bowl tasted lovely, lets hope the cake tastes as good.

  Really easy! I dotted butter and drizzled golden syrup over the bottom of the baking dish instead of the sugar/butter mix, so it turned out with a lovely syrupy goo on top! Very sweet though, like someone else said I think you could use less sugar in the cake mix.

  My husband makes this cake and oh my it is good, many homemade cakes in our house end up thrown away but not this one, this is lucky if it makes the end of the day, perfect with a big scoop of icecream.

  First cake I have ever made alone. Always thought I could not do it but this is really delish. Very simple to do and makes a sweet light sponge. Family ate it all up and ordered me to make one every weekend!

  I have just made this pineapple upside down cake. But, I only had a small tin of pineapple chunks, so I made the cake as directed but instead of using pineapple rings and cherries, I drained my small can of pineapple and mashed it up roughly, then added about the same amount of raisins. Lovely.

  Love this easy recipe, I made it for one of my blog posts. It is best eaten straight away as it gets a bit dry if left but this is in no way a problem :)

  This was a disaster for me and I've no idea why! I followed the recipe and thought the cake mix was a bit runny so added a little more flour. It just wouldn't firm up and was in the oven for about an hour.
