White Chocolate cake/Pineapple Pie

Could you put nuts in the white chocolate cake? Or maybe coconut, for that matter?

Don't know about the pineapple pie recipe but I imagine there must be something (flour, corn starch?) to sop up excess liquid.

You can sweeten mascarpone with plain ol' white sugar to taste.

For the pie:
Take any simple blueberry pie recipe for ratio and replace the blueberries with pineapple. Fine grain tapioca pudding is usually the thickener.

Def could NOT do coconut cuz it's my wedding cake (my aunt is baking it) and my fiance HATES coconut! LOL And it could just be three ingredients (pineapple, sugar, flour) in the pineapple pie. *shrugs* My stepfather died a few yrs back and he never wrote down the recipe and my mom can't remember the ingredients either! I will have to try it! Thanxs!

I have heard that you could sweeten with powdered sugar or honey, but I think the honey would taste a little funny in it, and I don't really care for powdered sugar (two sweet). I would like to do something fruity, but not strawberries or cherries (I think it's icky with chocolate) but I don't know what other fruit would be good with WHITE chocolate! I have a recipe for white chocolate mousse but I think that would be too much white chocolate!

Plain granulated white sugar sweetens mascarpone. Just add a little at a time until it tastes right to you. Really. I know about this. I think of white chocolate as mostly sugar, so don't over do the sweetness.

Speaking of blueberries, you could use them in your cake or go for something totally unique and use kiwi.

The pineapple would have to be very well drained to avoid using a thickener. The tapioca does not really add a taste and works better than flour, so you might get a similar version of your father's recipe by using it.

I like the kiwi idea..

I bet a dash of cardomon would enhance the pinapple.

Would you consider a mocha fillling or raspberry creme/

The mocha would be awesome! Can't believe I didn't think about that! I am seriously addicted to coffee! LOL Don't like the raspberry too much tho. Thanks!
