TROPICAL DREAM CAKE
Well, you'd better kick off your shoes, grab a straw hat, your sunglasses and a Mai Tai with the frilly toothpick because you'll be off to the islands, mon! The name tells all! Wonderful cake for outdoors get-togethers, pool parties, pot lucks, and everything in-between. Rich with pineapple and a kiss of rum, this is a great cake. Decorate it with coconut, cherries, (frilly toothpicks) or anything else you can think of. I'd suggest a cream cheese frosting for this, as well as coconut.I have dyed the coconut to pastel colors for different occasions, holidays, etc. and it looks so pretty! If using frosting, make sure that the cake has been cooled to room temperature.
