Very, very nice! Made for a neighbor who loves pineapple cake, as do I, & I managed to get a piece of it (for taste-testing only, of course!), & this is GREAT! Can think of other things, as well, for this raspberry sauce! Thanks for sharing! [Made & reviewed for one of my adoptees in this Spring's Pick-A-Chef]
