Drain the pineapple on a sieve and cut into small pieces. Cream fat and sugar with the whisk of the hand mixer. Stir in the eggs one after the other. Mix flour and baking powder and stir into the fat-egg mixture. Add lemon zest, grated coconut and liqueur. Finally, fold in pineapple pieces, except for a few for decoration. Pour the dough into a greased and semolina-spread box form (26 cm long, 1 1/2 litre capacity) and smooth it down. Bake in a preheated oven (electric: 175 °C/ gas: level 2) for 55-65 minutes. Allow to cool slightly in the tin, turn out onto a cake rack and allow to cool completely. For the icing, stir icing sugar and liqueur until smooth. Spread the cake with it and sprinkle the grated coconut over it. Decorate with pineapple pieces and, if desired, cocktail cherries and lemon balm. Makes approx. 16 pieces
