Notes

Even Layers: Arrange the pineapple slices evenly for a polished presentation.
Choose the Right Pineapple: Fresh pineapple slices work best, but canned slices can be used if fresh isn’t available.
Grease the Pan Well: Ensure your pan is well-greased or lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking.
Cool Before Flipping: Let the cake cool for at least 10 minutes before flipping to keep the topping intact.
