Wow! I can’t wait to try this one. I just finished making two of your cheesecakes.
I am just a little bit in love with this. Now all Better Crocker needs to do is come up with a GF sugar free cake mix and I would be all set. I will happily settle for the amazing cheesecakes. I am addicted to them.
Do you need 1 or 2 cans of crushed pineapple as both are listed in the recipe? I can’t wait to try this recipe
You will use two altogether. 1 (8oz) inside the batter and 1 ( 8oz.) at the bottom of the pan.
This cake was delicious!!!! My fiance’ and I loved it. I am going to make it again for school functions so that I have safe options. Thank you for this website.

Thank you so much for coming up with this recipe!!! My husband and I joined WW 1 month ago and he was wondering if he could somehow have pineapple upside down cake for his birthday cake. I knew someone had to have done this with a sugar free cake mix and it was you! Can’t wait to make it for him.

Is the sugar frer cake mixes higher in points than a regular cake mix? Does the higher sugar alcohols & carbs make the points value higher?
Thanks!
The Sugar Free Cake Mix lower in points than the regular cake mix. The sugar free Pillsbury Yellow Cake mix is 39 points for the entire package. The regular Pillsbury Yellow Cake Mix is 74 points. So there is a quite a bit of difference.
Thank you!
