Canned fruits were spoilt for choice during the Chinese New Year and in order not to miss out on the attractive bargains, I bought some home as gifts or for dessert. Chanced upon a recipe for Pineapple Bundt Cake calling for undrained crushed canned pineapple and I was game for an experiment! Although the texture was a bit dense, it wasn't a disappointment as the cake was moist, soft and full of pineapple flavour.
