Despite this treat's popularity and versatility, though, the actual origins of the pineapple coffee cake are unknown. People have been using this as an anytime delight for years, but no one can pinpoint where the taste began. It is as if this sometimes desert, sometimes breakfast meal just suddenly appeared in the twentieth century, already well-known and often-used.

So where did it come from? Who created this any hour treat? No one knows, even if the guesses are numerous.

As early as 1930, the pineapple coffee cake was being featured in magazines as the treat to serve. But pictures of similar looking cakes have been found in books dating before the mid-1920's. No date can be given that would explain just where, or who, this cake came from.

Still, lack of origin aside, the pineapple coffee cake has become a staple of homes everywhere. Noted for its delicious taste and easy to bake process, this is something that can be served at any time for any person. If you want a sweet, fruity taste, then this is the recommended cake.

If you want to serve it for breakfast, then we suggest making it the only food. Though this has a light taste, it is extremely filling and should not be combined with other heavy breakfast foods. Cut the sweet taste with strong coffee for a satisfying start to your morning.

If you are looking for a simple snack to serve at an afternoon brunch with your friends, the pineapple coffee cake also works. Enjoy a slice of fruity goodness as you catch up with familiar faces. And, since this is so easy to make, you can have one already cooling before guests even arrive.

For a special treat after a successful (or even not-so successful) dinner party, consider serving this as a way to retreat into conversation. And, if things were slow at dinner, this will be the perfect way to perk them back up. Guests will leave remembering your delicious desert.

The pineapple coffee cake is one of the most versatile ways to eat. Few other cakes can be served so often during the day and still seem perfect. It is light enough for the morning but sweet enough for the evening, making it the perfect combination to converse over.
