How to Make Pineapple Juice Cake

Ingredients:

  • 1 box yellow cake mix
  • 1 (3.4 oz) box instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 3/4 cup vegetable oil
  • 3/4 cup pineapple juice
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1/4 cup pineapple juice
  • 1 tablespoon melted butter

Directions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 10-cup Bundt pan or spray it with non-stick cooking spray.
  2. In a large bowl, mix the yellow cake mix, instant vanilla pudding mix, vegetable oil, 3/4 cup pineapple juice, and the large eggs.
  3. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2–3 minutes until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  4. Pour the batter into the prepared Bundt pan.
  5. Bake for 40–45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
  6. While the cake is baking, whisk together the powdered sugar, 1/4 cup pineapple juice, and melted butter until smooth.
  7. Once the cake is baked, allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
  8. Carefully invert the cake onto a serving plate.
  9. While the cake is still warm, poke holes all over the top with a skewer or fork and slowly pour the glaze over the cake, letting it soak in.
  10. Let the cake cool completely before slicing.

How to Serve Pineapple Juice Cake

Pineapple Juice Cake is great on its own, but you can also serve it with a dollop of whipped cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an extra treat. It’s a lovely dessert for gatherings or just a family dinner.

How to Store Pineapple Juice Cake

To store the cake, keep it covered at room temperature for up to 3 days. If you want to save it longer, you can store it in the refrigerator for about a week. Make sure to keep it in an airtight container to keep it fresh.

Tips to Make Pineapple Juice Cake

  • For a stronger pineapple flavor, consider adding some crushed pineapple to the batter.
  • Don’t rush the cooling process; letting it cool fully helps the glaze soak in better.
  • Experiment with the glaze by adding a bit of coconut extract for a tropical twist.

Variation

You can easily make this cake your own by adding nuts, shredded coconut, or even different flavorings to the glaze. Just have fun with it!
