Detailed instructions
1. Prepare the sponge cake

Next, add the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, and 3 tablespoons of water. Gently mix until you have a smooth, homogeneous batter.
2. Baking
Generously butter a round cake pan and pour in the batter.
Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for 45 to 50 minutes, or until the cake is golden brown.
Let it cool completely before unmolding.
3. Preparing the whipped cream
Pour the very cold heavy cream into a chilled bowl.
Add the 2 tablespoons of sugar and whip until stiff peaks form.
Refrigerate.
4. Assembling the cake
Slice the cooled cake in half horizontally.
Generously soak both cut surfaces with the juice from the cans of pineapple to create an ultra-moist and flavorful cake.
Spread a generous layer of whipped cream on the base, then add the pineapple pieces.
Gently cover with the second half of the cake.
