Yummy! VERY moist. I think next time I'll cut back on the oil a bit. I only added 1/2 cup sugar to the pineapple topping and it was PERFECT. 1 cup would have been way too sweet.

Very good after a day in the fridge. I did use applesauce instead of oil in the cake mix. And I also added some Mtn Dew in with the pineapple and juice before adding cornstarch to give it somw extra Dew flavor. My family really liked this cake and so did I.

I have made this twice in the past 2 weeks and it is always a crowd pleaser.

I am giving this 4 stars because I like it better without the coconut in the topping. I did half with and half without. The cake itself is ok, but the topping without the coconut is amazing. My oldest looked at it and didn't want anything to do with trying it. Once he did he was the one to eat half of it.

This cake is moist & delicious! I like to use orange cake mix instead of lemon. :-)

Made this for a luncheon and it disappeared. It was very easy to assemble and bake, which is great when a dessert is needed in a hurry.

I made this cake today for a picnic and it was AWESOME! The whole cake was gone, people who don't even like coconut or lemon loved this cake, and I had three recipe requests. It was very moist like other reviewers said. I followed the directions, but only did 2/3 cup of sugar in the topping. Will make again!!!!

The cake is sooo moist and delicious!!! However the topping is wayy too sweet. I didn't even add a whole cup of sugar; a little more than 2/3 of a cup. I didn't add any coconut because I didn't have any.
