Sorry, i'm not sure on bake time, because im always making in different sized pans! I'm glad you enjoyed it! Pineapple cake mix can be tough to find at times, but white cake works well in a pinch!

What is the serving size on a batch this big? What size pan(s) for this recipe, please?

I made this recipe exactly as it is written here. It is an amazing tasting cake, but it is SUPER sweet! Nonetheless, I filled it with a pineapple filling (curd-type filling) and frosted with rum coconut buttercream. I think my husband must've died and gone to heaven when he tasted it. LOVED IT!! I am making it as the bottom layer of a 3-tier cake and it will be covered with fondant. This is my first time for tiers, fondant AND this flavor of cake. It is a luau themed party. Should be a big hit. Thanks for sharing the recipe. I may try it again but cut down on the amount of sugar added. Oh, I made 2 10-inch layers, 2 6-inch layers and a couple of cupcakes. It cooked up very nicely, but took a very long time. I think each layer took 55 minutes or more. Thanks again! (this is my first post on CC)

This sounds fantastic. I'm also having a luau themed bday party for my daughter and making a 3 tiered cake...6, 8 and 10 inch round do you suggest doubling this. I am also considering making the 8 inch a dummy cake. Thanks for any input.

I am going to try to half this recipe tomorrow, a little too big a batch for my needs right now. What does WASC stand for?
NancysCakesandBeyond 7/20/11 at 7:51pm
@Spodn WASC stands for White Almond Sour Cream Cake and you can just half this recipe and it will work just great!

I'm thinking of making this cake and covering with fondant. Will this cake hold it's shape and not fall apart? What is the texture of the cake ? thank you

I was wondering if you could share your rum coconut buttercream icing :)
southerncross 8/16/11 at 7:14pm
I usually make scratch cakes but I have an order for a pina colada stacked cake for next month and I haven't been able to get the right combo ...so I'm going to just go with a WASC and this sounds amazing. The only frozen Pina Colada concentrate I can find is a Bacardi Mixer in a 10 oz size. Is that the size you recommend?
southerncross 8/28/11 at 5:51pm
I finally made this cake exactly as set forth in the recipe. It tastes wonderful and the aroma is outstanding. It is a dense cake and should hold up well under fondant and carving. It has a pound cake like texture and I'm use to a lighter, airier texture but the firmness is very appealing as I made a 14 inch square cake and the added structure is actually a plus.

Very good with coconut-rum buttercream! I made 10 dozen mini cupcakes with this recipe...All of my customers loved them!

Does anyone have any idea what can be substituted for the pina colada mix? Can't get it close to us and don't want to drive 30 mi to get ti...thanks!
Walkinmomma 7/6/12 at 10:59am
What size cans of pina colada mix did you use-our local store carries 40 Oz. size and that surely seems like a lot of liquid!

Try asking at a large liquor store for the bacardi's pina colada concentrate. HTH

Does anyone know how many cupcakes this will make?
