Add the flour mixture in two batches and mix until smooth. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the pineapple pieces. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.

3. Bake until golden brown, 35 to 40 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove to a rack and peel off the parchment paper. For extra flavor, while the cake is still warm, brush it with rum or pineapple juice. Let the cake cool completely at room temperature or in the refrigerator if you don't have time to wait.

4. After completely cooling, place the powdered sugar and salt in a bowl, mix with 1 1/2 tablespoons of pineapple juice, and whisk until a thick glaze forms. Add additional pineapple juice (about a teaspoon or more) if the glaze seems too thick. Pour the glaze over the cooled cake. Serve immediately or refrigerate for 20 minutes to allow the glaze to slightly thicken.
