Something a little different - quick and easy to make as you use a white cake mix and vanilla frosting and then jazz them up.

I wanted to make something a little different so I thought I would try this and it turned out well, although I might try more of whipped topping instead of vanilla frosting next time. It was very moist and flavorful with the pineapple being the main flavor with just a hint of the lime, mint and rum flavors.
