Yum-o!

Really great, moist, rich cake. We had it for a birthday and everyone loved it - even my husband who is not a big coconut fan. (Didn't use the frosting recipe - made a lighter frosting.)

the cake was good but ithink its only because the cake mix was from a box-it didn't really taste like coconut though. and the frosting was too sugary-i think four cups of sugar was a little too much. it prolly dint taste as good b/c im just a beginner cook-please dont ocmment on my comment

Perfectly Delicious. Took it out of the oven about an hour ago, and half of the cake is already gone. Made a change and used Coconut cake mix instead of white. MM MM GOOD!!!

Everyone loved it!

This cake was so good! I followed the recipe exactly - except I used whipped cream cheese. It was so moist and good- even my picky daughter asked for more!!!

I give this one a 4 because it lacked a lot of coconut flavor. I used almost 2 cups of coconut cream in the batter but didn't taste or smell of the coconut flavor after it came out of the oven. Maybe I will use coconut extract next time.

This recipe is fantastic! Try toasting the flaked coconut for the top - DELICIOUS!

I agree with the users who said this cake absolutely fell apart. Unless you just want to sit it on a plate and ice it and leave it at that, don't bother with this. It's more trouble than it's worth.

THIS WAS REALLY GOOD

I have made this cake at least three times in the past months and "Oh My"... it is so moist and really terrific...It is even better the next day, you can definately make ahead of the day you wish to serve it....I put coconut flavoring in both the cake and the frosting [about one teas in each] also I baked it in two round cake pans...."yummy"

I own a restaurant and Iwas looking for a good coconut cake and this was it.It sells out evreytime I make it.

I made this cake tonight for my husbands birthday. It was wonderful! Very rich and moist. The frosting was yummy as well. Thanks for the great recipe!!

This recipe was excellent!! I made this for my husband's birthday cake. He loves coconut so I made a couple of changes to the recipe. I added coconut extract to the cake batter and to the icing. I also mixed about 1/4 cup of flaked coconut into the icing and then toasted flaked coconut and put it on top of the cake. I let it sit in the refridgerator overnight and it was perfect!!

I needed a quick coconut cake recipe since I didn't have the 3-4 days to make my usual recipe. Thought this was it, sounded great and thought I could pull it off with all the wonderful tips from reviewers, and incorporated a few minor changes myself. Was quite disappointed. If you like a real strong coconut flavor in your cake, this recipe is not for you. Even though I added coconut extract to the mix, and cream of coconut to the frosting and covered the layers with flake cocnut after frosting, it still only slightly resembled a potent coconut cake. It's a good idea, and very simple to put together but I will probably not make this again. I give it 3 only because the frosting was tasty.

delicious and moist!

Great recipe for cupcakes. I made a few changes. I used French Vanilla cake mix (it was all I had). I added 1/3 oil, 1 cup Milk, 3 tsp. coconut extract in place of the coconut cream. It was yummy.
