📖 The Story Behind This Dish

Antigua is known for a sweet, small pineapple called the 'Antigua Black.' At home, a cake made by laying pineapple in a dark sugar and butter caramel in the bottom of the pan, pouring batter over, baking, and flipping it out is a favorite.

🌆 Where it's eaten: On an afternoon in an Antiguan home, a golden pineapple cake flipped out of its pan glistens with caramel.
