Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour three 8-inch round cake pans.
Whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt. Set aside.

Alternate adding the flour mixture and milk to the butter mixture, starting and ending with flour.
Divide the batter evenly among the pans and bake for 25-30 minutes. Cool for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack.
For the filling, combine pineapple, sugar, cornstarch, lemon zest, and lemon juice in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook until thickened. Cool completely.
For the frosting, beat butter until creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar and melted white chocolate. Mix in vanilla and heavy cream until smooth.
To assemble, place one cake layer on a plate, spread with pineapple filling, then add the next layer and repeat. Frost the entire cake with the vanilla buttercream.
Decorate with white chocolate shavings or pieces of pineapple if desired.
