Description
Pineapple upside-down cake has been a beloved dessert for generations, thanks to its tropical flavor, caramelized fruit, and eye-catching retro presentation. This version gives the classic a beach vacation with the flavors of a piña colada. Coconut and rum are layered through the cake to complement the sweet pineapple, while homemade maraschino cherries offer a more natural take on the nostalgic garnish. The result is a fun, tropical twist that's just as perfect for a summer celebration as it is for a cozy dessert at home.
