I have no idea what I did wrong, but mine tastes like Baking Soda, I guess I left it in the buttermilk too long, Will not try again.

A little on the dry side, may try adding a sugar syrup when assembling next time as the flavour was really yummy!

This cake is incredible. It was all eaten in less than an hour after we cut it. Very moist and yummy.

The cake was pretty good. Mine came out a little dense, but I left out the pecans and coconut, which might have helped the structure a bit more. My coworkers loved it though! Instead of adding the pecans and coconut to the batter, I toasted slivered almonds and coconut and added them to the outside of the cake, after frosting. I also doubled the frosting, and per the reviews, used less powdered sugar, probably 5-6 cups in the doubled recipe. This is only the second really good cake recipe I've found from scratch, so thank you!

Really good cake but I think next time I make it that I will make it a two layer (so you can really enjoy the cake itself)and reduce the amount of coconut in the cake. I think that with 3 layers it is just too much icing involved.

This cake for some reason is a bit time consuming. However it is very delicious! I did not add coconut because the bday girl did not like it but I'm glad I didn;t because with the nuts alone, it was too much! Althoug we're nut lovers we all agreed the nuts took the show away from the cake itself that we could barely feel the cake texture. Next time i'll add halff the nuts and half the coconut...maybe even less. The texture of the cake was more on the muffin side but it was still good.
