Mom used to make a cake similar to this. She would take jello and add to the pineapple. I liked lime jello especially for the tart taste it added to the sweet taste of the pineapple. Also you can do this cake as a poke cake where you take a round spoon handle and randomly poke holes about half way thru the cake layer so the liquid from the fruit soaks in better.
