Hello,
My family is from Seattle and I have many fond memories of the Van de Kamp
cookies and my grandmother. I’ve heard my Mother and Aunt talk about an
awesome Pineapple Coffee Cake that my Great Grandfather Muehl developed
the recipe for as he was a Van de Kamp baker. Unfortunately, no one in the
family has the recipe—perhaps you may have access to it? It would be a
quite a fun surprise for the old gals (82 and 88), wouldn’t it? 🙂

Hello Carol,
Sorry, I cannot find even a single mention of Van de Kamp's Pineapple Coffee Cake. That recipe does not seem to be on the Internet.
There is a Van de Kamp's Bakery specific page here: Van de Kamp's Bakery
There is a Van de Kamp's Bakery Facebook Page here: Van de Kamp's Bakery on Facebook 1
It says "private group", but joining it is not a problem.
Kathryn Van de Kamp has the VdK recipes and she is making and selling VdK products.
Her Facebook page is here: Van de Kamp's Bakery on Facebook 2
Carol, post a request for the pineapple coffee cake on those Facebook pages. That's your best bet for getting the recipe.
I'll post this on my site for reader input.
