excellent, trying hard here to elevate from small talk to medium talk. Th only thing I could think of was cake and how eggs look like tits.. in a weird kind of way.

Thats odd, they taught us how to sieve flour in the first session and then how to make really shit biscuits which would be hard enough to withstand a battering from shane macgowan

Its just a sponge, standard recipe, but with sugar cranberries, nutmeg ginger, cinnamon and a slug of brandy instead of the pineapples and cherries.

For the plum one use sugar, plum halves with a ball of marzipan where the stone came out of in place of the pineapple

one more thing I am looking to do is sous vide the batter mixture. I sous vide regularly, chateaubriand etc.. but have been looking to see what it would taste like in the anova for 3 hours at 155 farenheit

The pineapple won't caramelise at that temperature. Might be worth caramelising them first. I have to admit I have never sous vide so I dunno really.

Thats easy.. I add more brown sugar : butter ratio - approx 1.75:1. I use brown muscovado and depending on how boris johnson you go at it, it will come our toffee like or nicely caramelised. The trick is to stick foil on top of the tin and whack the temp up to 200 C for 10 mins.. does the trick without you having to stick your pineapples in the pan (no euphemism).

Whatever you do don't put it onto a cooling tray as I did when at school. Whole thing went straight through the cooling tray leaving a piles of soggy cake underneath and pineapple and cherries on the cooling tray lol
