It will be yellow with a green margin. Pineapple Poll is solid green. Pineapple Punch is the reverse of Pineapple Upsidedown Cake. Pineapple Punch is the all yellow version. There is a new one out now. I think it is named Pineapple Ripple. My PUC is doing ok, my P Punch went a little backwards after last years heatwave. My P Juice is still a single eye, I got it as a 1 year TC. P Poll is doing good. It is short. Here is a link that might be useful: PUC on HL

Thanks everyone, your pictures reminded me of why I bought it in the first place! The holes are not slugs (in my area slugs are small and leave tiny white edged holes) they are probably caterpillars or something else that actually chomps 1/4" x 1" sections out of the middle of the leaves between the veins. It is so damaged, I'll move it to the other side of the bed until it gets a little more size/color on it. Right now it is next to a garden bench at the entrance to my front/side hosta bed and with the holes, it just doesn't give the impression I am after! Better to move it for a couple of years and then try that spot again when it can be a showpiece like the ones posted! Thanks again for the lovely photos, BettyLu

Thank you all for the responses. I did wait about 8 minutes even though the recipe says 5, so that was the problem. I know because I made it again (just had to see if I could do it! I will freeze a lot of it)(found a different recipe, but for the same size pan) and turned it out the instant it came out the oven. It came out perfectly! I have made it in a cast iron skillet when I was teenager at my grandmothers house... I don't own one, but maybe it's time to consider buying one! The ugly one tasted OK, but it was dry... I just pour milk over it when I want a piece. Gldno1, I also tried to stop baking (and stop attending this forum) in an effort to lose weight. I was still just as fat, just got sad on top of it. I'd rather be plump and happy than skinny and miserable! I enjoy baking (and this forum) and cannot stop!

I used to make pineapple upside down cake in the restaurant in San Francisco where I worked in the mid 1970s, and I made it with fresh pineapple, which I simply cut into pieces, and there were no rings and therefore no holes. If you are using rings, you can cut them in half and arrange them differently, as in an "S" pattern. I had to make large quantities in the restaurant, and I was so tired after cutting up that many pineapples that I could not be bothered with cherries. It was a hippy style restaurant, and the cake always sold. I would make two 16" x 24" rectangular pans of that cake at once, and I had to make four more pans of two other items each night that I worked. I had to make a syrup from the pineapple juice that I collected (plus some brown sugar) because the fresh pineapples were tart.
