Add enough water to reserved pineapple juice to measure 230ml. Beat cake mix, eggs, oil and pineapple juice mixture in a large bowl on low speed until moistened. Beat on medium speed for 2 minutes. Pour the cake mixture over the pineapple and cherries and gently level the surface with a spatula.
Bake 42 to 46 minutes until golden and toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out clean. Immediately run knife around sides of the pan to loosen cake.
Place a heatproof serving plate or board upside down on the on top of the cake pan. Turn plate and pan over together. Leave pan over cake for 5 minutes so the brown sugar topping can drizzle over cake; remove pan.

For added flavor, add 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon to the cake batter.
