It looks and smells really good... I used Pineapple Nectar and also took a small can of crushed pineapple (about 1/2 cup), drained it well, and added it to the glaze! then dusted the top with confectioners sugar... It looks like a cake you'd get in one of those Diner Carousels! Won't know how it tastes til tonight!
