"We used to make this to take for parties, it's a very good sweet and rich cake. If you wanted to make it fancy put it in two round pans and make it a layer cake with icing in the middle and on the sides, use whole pecans and place around the sides, top with pineapple rings with strawberries sitting in the middles."
