Expert Tips

Be sure to remove the cakes from the custard cups just a minute after baking so that the cakes don't stick--and so you don't miss a bit of the caramely topping!

I made it with the corn syrup and it was sooooooooo good. I tripled the recipe and I had one and my husband & his friend ate the rest of them.

Brown Sugar can be substituted for the corn syrup, spray the custard cup and put a piece of wax paper in the bottom of the custard cup sprinkle the brown sugar, put in the pineapple and cherry then pour the cake batter on top. I don't like the biscuit.

Didn't like these when made with biscuits. Got a box of Jiffy white cake mix, made according to the instructions, omitted the corn syrup (too sweet), and used 6 custard cups. The extras froze beautifully and only had to be warmed in the micro when defrosted. Delish!

@ lutzlady.. I have made pineapple upsidedown cake from scratch from the Better Homes & Garden cookbook and never used corn syrup. Try making them as the recipe states, just omit the corn syrup.

Corn syrup is not the best thing for kids.... what can be substituted -- I would still like to use the biscuit.
