Maybe Pandoro don't make it and that might explain why they declined to give you the recipe (because they don't know it themselves)? Pandoro might be getting it in from Zaida's, another Wellington bakery that supplies other outlets and has a brazil and pineapple cake listed in their products [zaidas.co.nz]
Based on the Zaida image of the cake, if I were trying to replicate this cake I'd start with this recipe [allrecipes.co.uk] and substitute a 227g tin of pineapple in and delete the carrot (since you say it doesn't have any in it) and I'd also delete the orange because otherwise the mixture's going to be too soggy. I'd be looking carefully at the wet levels and texture of the cake at this point and deciding on what to add in to replace all the carrot taken out. Interestingly, this recipe has some alternative suggestions at the end of it and one of them is to sub in pineapple (but keep most of the carrot),remove the orange and replace the brazil nuts with pecan nuts.

The other day I managed to get up a photo of Pandoro's Pineapple and Brazil Nut cake complete with main ingredient description, but do you think I can find it today? The answer is - No!! However, I have found Pandoro's description of the cake which is:
'Pineapple & Brazil nut
Playful mix of grated apples, crushed pineapples & chunky brazil nuts, topped generously with cream cheese icing & a ring of toasted coconut chips.'
Looks as if the secret ingredient is grated apples! So I hope this helps you to be able to replicate the cake!

Dawn.

Hi Joy Thanks for the reply.......yes I saw this recipe and thought yay.... till I read a readers comment... they.said it did not rise at all! I shall have to take on board Dawn's reply when she quoted Pandoro's description of this yummy cake. Grated apple.....interesting. Would still LOVE this original Pandora recipe but obviously they just don't want to share!

PatMac, do you think this recipe from Ruth Pretty could be adapted. The addition to this recipe as well as crushed pineapple and grated apple seems to be grated carrots and coconut and there are no Brazil nuts in Ruth's recipe, which you would need to add, but, (with a little luck) it might replicate the recipe you are wanting? I'm certain Pandoro have not divulged all the important ingredients to their cake!

I still cannot find the Pandoro's picture of their cake, which I did originally find!

Dawn.
