Yummy! I used lemon cake instead of white. I also used only about a cup of sugar for the filling. It sat in the fridge for three days until the party. My family loved it! The coconut filling was definitely my favorite part!

Oh, besides my last review raving about this cake, I forgot to mention that I did use confectioner's sugar and only 1 cup of it sufficed!!! happy baking!

This was my first cocount cake ever. It's very simple and everyone loved it. The longer it's refrigerated the better it is!

This is a great recipe - my only adjustment would be to use confectioner's sugar. The original recipe callas for white/granulated sugar, which give the frosting a gritty texture. Not bad, but the confectioner's sugar may eliminate it. Otherwise, an awesome cake!

This cake is delish and everyone loved it but it is way too sweet. I even reduced the amount of sugar to one cup and it was still too sweet. DON'T put in the full two cups of sugar! Next time I make this I will use half cup.

I was looking for a great coconut cake recipe and I have found it! This cake just gets better and better each day it sits in the refrigerator. It was moist, yet light and not too sweet. I personally loved the toasted coconut added on top. Looks and tastes fantastic! A must try recipe...

This was probably the best looking cake I have ever made. It turned out perfect. I was sooo suprised. The only change I made was I cut back on some of the sugar after reading some of the reviews. I did make this cake about 4 days early, and everyone LOVED it. I couldn't believe how good it tasted. It was very easy to put together. Thanks for the recipe.

This is the easiest and best cake ever! I have made two in the last week, one for a raffle and the other for home, they were both a hit. Thanks for the great recipe. This will be made many many more times.
