Stir in the drained pineapple. Spread the mixture over top of the cooled cake, then spread the whipped topping over the pudding.
• Chill the cake at least two hours. It will keep for several days (and is actually really excellent the second day). I prefer to serve this cake chilled.

PINEAPPLE WHIPPED CREAM

Steps:

• Place a metal mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for 15 minutes.
• Remove the bowl from the freezer. Add the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and pineapple jello powder, and beat with an electric mixer for 4-5 minutes, or until stiff peaks form / it's scoop-able with a spoon and holds its shape.

BASIC WHITE TWO-LAYER CAKE AND WHITE BUTTERCREAM FROSTING RECIPE

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees and make sure that the rack is in the center of your oven. Spray two 8" round cake pans very generously with non-stick cooking spray (I used Baker's Joy ).
• In a large bowl, mix together cake flour, salt, and baking powder; set bowl aside.
• In another large bowl, cream the butter and sugar together on medium speed for about 2 minutes, or until it's light and fluffy (you can use a standing mixer or an electric hand mixer).
• In a large measuring cup, combine the milk, vanilla, and almond extract.
• Now it's time to add them all together! Add 1/3 of the flour mixture to the butter mixture and blend on a low speed for about 30 seconds. Add about 1/2 of the milk mixture and blend again. Add in half of what's left of the flour mixture and blend again. Add in the rest of the milk mixture, blend for a couple of seconds, then the remaining flour mixture and blend at a low speed until the ingredients are barely mixed together (don't over mix!).
• In a separate bowl (or in your stand mixer using the whisk attachment), beat the egg whites on medium-high speed until they reach "firm peak stage" (a.k.a. when the whisk is held sideways, the peaks will hold and the ridges will be distinct - this took about five minutes of whisking for me!). Fold the egg whites into the cake batter.
• Pour the cake batter evenly into the two prepared pans and bake them for 20-26 minutes (mine were done at 25), or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let the cakes cool for about 10 minutes, then carefully remove the cakes and let them finish cooling on wire racks.
• Combine the shortening, vanilla, and salt in a large bowl (you can use a stand mixer with a paddle attachment or a hand mixer). Add the powdered sugar 1 cup at a time, alternating with the milk or heavy cream, and mix it together until you have used it all. If the frosting is too thick, add more milk. If the frosting is too thin, add more sugar.
• Place one of your cooled, leveled cake layers on your cake stand . Using an offset spatula, place about 1/2 cup of frosting in the middle of the cake. Using your spatula, push the frosting out to the edges until the frosting is about 1/4"-1/2" thick (if you have a rotating cake stand, this step is really easy, but you can do it without it).
• Place the second layer of cake on top. You will now create the crumb coat (a thin layer of frosting that seals in all the crumbs to make it easy to decorate). Using the offset spatula, spread the frosting that has spilled out from between the layers smoothly over the surface. Add more frosting as needed, just keep the layer thin and smooth.
• Place about 1/2 cup of frosting on the top of the cake, pushing the frosting out to the edges until it's a smooth, flat surface.
• Now place the spatula against the edges of the cake and smooth out the excess frosting pushed over from the top of the cake.
• To help the cake firm up, stick it in the freezer for about 1-2 hours.
• From here, drop 1/2 cup frosting on the center of the cake and push it out to the edges as you did before, making the surface nice and smooth.
• Continue adding frosting to the top and edges of the cake until it's the smoothness and thickness you want. (Amanda says that the best way to get smooth frosting is to practice!)
• From there, continue to add more frosting to the top and sides of the cake until it's completely covered. I topped mine off with sprinkles, but you could get fancy and add some frosting decorations

BUTTER CAKE WITH PINEAPPLE WHIPPED CREAM FROSTING

Steps:

• Let pineapple drain about 2 hours before baking.
• According to the cake mix, have 1 stick of butter and 3 large eggs at room temperature.
• Place a medium bowl and the beaters of an electric blender in the freezer.
• Bake cake in any size pan you wish.
• When cake is done, and cooled, add whipping cream and powdered sugar (more or less according to your taste) to the bowl that was in the freezer.
• Use the cold beaters to whip the cream until set. (about 4 minutes?)
• Blend in pineapple.
• Cream should be thick enough to stay on the blenders when you lift them out.
• Frost cake.

ORANGE PINEAPPLE CAKE

Steps:

• For the Orange CakePreheat to 325 if using three 8x2 inch round pans like we did. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees if using two 8x2 round pans. Grease and flour three 8 x 2 inch round pans. (You can also use two 8x2 inch round pans for thicker layers but we like the additional layer of filling that three cake layers allows.) In a separate bowl, add the flour, baking powder, salt and zest of 1 orange - whisk to blend and set aside. In another bowl, add the thawed orange juice concentrate, milk and orange extract. Set aside. In the bowl of your mixer, add the butter and mix on medium speed until softened and smooth. Gradually add the sugar and mix on medium speed for 4 to 5 minutes, until light and fluffy, a bit longer if using a hand mixer. Add the eggs 1 at a time, mixing after each until blended in. Alternately, add the flour mixture (3 additions) and the milk (2 additions) beginning and ending with the dry ingredients. You can also add orange coloring now, add just a little at a time so you can control the intensity of color. Do not over mix the batter or mix above medium speed. Scrape bottom and sides of bowl. Pour into prepared pans, smoothing the top of the cake batter with the back of a spoon. This recipe makes 6 cups batter FOR CAKE LAYERS : If using 3 cake pans bake at 325 degrees for 22 to 25 minutes. For 2 pans Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 35 minutes. The cake is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean or with only a few crumbs attached. Let cool in pans 5-10 minutes then turn out. FOR CUPCAKES: Bake at 350 degrees for 18 to 20 minutes. This will make 2 dozen plus cupcakes. For the Pineapple and Cream FillingCombine the pudding mix and heavy cream in a mixing bowl. I prefer to mix with a hand held mixer, but a whisk fine also. If using a mixer, start on low speed until well combined. Then, switch to high speed and whip the pudding until thick and fluffy. If mousse is too thick, mix in small amounts of heavy cream to reach desired consistency. If mixing by hand, simply whisk rapidly for a couple of minutes or until mixture is nice and thick. Fold in crushed, drained, pineapple until well combined. For the Whipped Orange Mascarpone Frosting Freeze your mixing bowl and beaters 15 minutes before whipping the cream (30 minutes if chilling in the refrigerator. Use the whisk attachment for a stand mixer, beaters on your hand mixer. Beat the whipped cream until stiff peaks form. (While beating, you can add drops of orange coloring gel if you like) This can happen very quickly so don't walk away from the mixer. You are at the stiff peak stage when you lift the beater and the cream stands straight up forming a peak. Keep in the refrigerator while completing the next step. In another bowl combine the mascarpone, powdered sugar and extract. Beat until very smooth. Fold the whipped cream into this mixture and frost. Assembling the Cake Place the first cake layer on your pedestal or cake base. Spread with pineapple and cream filling. It is thick enough that no dam is required, but I spread the filling about 1/2 inch from the edge of the cake. Place the second layer on top and repeat. Top with the third cake layer and spread the top with the pineapple and cream filling. I left about an inch of space around the filling which I later filled with my frosting border. Frost the cake with whipped Orange Mascarpone Frosting. This is a softer frosting with a whipped consistency. You may find it easier to pipe it on using a piping bag with the tip snipped away (or an icer tip) and then smooth over it with a bench scraper. This is what worked well for me. I piped a rosette border around the top edge of the cake using a 2D piping tip, and also piped a shell border using the 2D tip around the base of the cake. *Cake should be refrigerated until closer to the time of serving.
