Prepare the Coconut Cake:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Preheat the oven to 180\u00b0C and grease a round tin.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In a bowl, mix the whole milk, oil and coconut essence.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Beat the egg whites on medium-high speed until they form soft peaks. Gradually add the refined sugar and continue beating until a firm meringue forms.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add the egg yolks to the meringue in an enveloping way.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sift the flour and add it in three parts, alternating with the milk and oil mixture. Integrate everything with enveloping movements so you don&#8217;t lose air.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pour the mixture into the pan and bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Let the cake cool completely before unmolding.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Prepare the Pineapple Filling:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>In a pot, combine the chopped pineapple, reserved syrup, water, and sugar.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cook over medium heat until the sugar is dissolved.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dissolve the cornstarch in a little cold water and add it to the pineapple mixture.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cook, stirring constantly, until thickened.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add a few drops of yellow food coloring if you want to intensify the color. Let cool completely.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3. Prepare the Pineapple Buttercream:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Beat the butter and cream cheese on medium speed until creamy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add the confectioners&#8217; sugar a little at a time while still whisking.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Stir in the chilled whipping cream and whisk until the mixture is fluffy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add pineapple or vanilla essence and yellow food coloring to taste. Refrigerate if necessary.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Assemble the Cake:<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Cut the cake into equal layers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Place a layer of sponge cake on top of the presentation plate and spread a generous layer of pineapple filling.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Repeat with the remaining layers of cake.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Cover the cake with the pineapple buttercream, smoothing the surface well.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Garnish with pineapple chunks, shredded coconut, or however you prefer.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Councils:<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Texture of the cake:<\/strong>\u00a0Make sure to beat the egg whites well for an airy cake.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>More intense flavor:<\/strong>\u00a0Add shredded coconut to the filling or sprinkle between the layers.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Easy demoulding:<\/strong>\u00a0Use wax paper at the bottom of the pan to make this step easier.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Storage:<\/strong>\u00a0Store the cake in the refrigerator if not consumed immediately, but take it out 20 minutes before serving to enjoy its best texture.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re looking for a tropical, fresh, and delicious dessert, this pineapple coconut cake is the perfect choice.
