pineapple yum yum cake
We have a local published cooking contest here each year. A couple of years ago one of my neighbors won in the dessert section. He has won several Blue Ribbons at the County Fair with different items, especially canned items. Though he is a retired Flight Engineer from NASA he is very talented in the kitchen. This recipe is one handed down in his family. Floral arrangement is another thing he does so well. The magazine choose to display his cake on the front page of the magazine. He had displayed the cake beautifully. An idea you might want to copy. He had used a gold colored charger, placed cut off yellow, long stem roses to the edge. He then sat the cake plate with the cake on top of the rose stems. The rose buds stuck out all around under the cake plate. It was quiet attractive. Of course, he does lovely arrangements. I'm sure he would be thrilled for you to use the recipe and copy his floral idea.
