The frosting was a little too runny for my taste. I think I might try adding some more cream cheese next time.

The cake was a little dry for my taste. I think I might try adding some extra buttermilk next time.

I had some trouble getting the cake to rise evenly. I think I might have overmixed the batter.

I'm not a huge fan of frosting, but the cream cheese frosting on this cake is amazing. It's not too sweet, and it pairs perfectly with the coconut cake.
