Pineapple Fizz Cake

Fizz cake is my birthday cake of choice. A birthday without fizz cake just doesn’t seem like my birthday.

Saturday wasn’t my birthday, but I did not have time to make a fancy dessert for the dinner party we were having. So I chose to make fizz cake. Mother got this recipe from Kitchen Klatter, a recipe radio show. Kitchen Klatter made wonderful flavorings. I can always tell a recipe that originated from that program because it has some kind of flavoring in it. Of course, I’ve tweaked it a bit. I never can resist a bit of tweaking.

The company is now called X-Tra Touch and still offers a wide range of flavorings. While making this, I noticed that I am nearly out of butter flavoring. If I cannot find that flavoring locally, I’ll order it from X-Tra Touch.
