Eggless Pineapple Pastry Cake - Pineapple pastry cake is technically not a pastry, but that’s what the Indians called it. The sponge cake is very soft, moist and spongy, with the pineapple crushed fillings and pineapple chunks, resembles the egg version last week, as I still feel this combination of fillings is the best, just the way I like it. In this recipe, I omit using any alcohol, as many of you who choose eggless must be vegetarians. I kept the design of this cake in a simple look. I hope you’re inspired to make this cake. Enjoy!
