Pineapple and Cherry Cake from the Great Australian Bake Off.

Vintage pineapple and cherry cake

This is my very first signature bake from the FOXTEL show, The Great Australian Bake Off! This classic vanilla cake is layered with retro tinned pineapple and iconic Amarena cherries. The cake is decorated with vintage piped buttercream, and topped with my absolute favourite: Maraschino cherries!

Pineapple upside down cake

My pineapple upside down cake is a slightly sweet vanilla cake crowned with caramelised pineapple and hints of sweet almond from maraschino cherries. The pineapple upside down cake was created in the 1920s, coinciding with the advent of tinned pineapple. It’s a classic vintage recipe that has endured over time.
