This is a wonderful, moist cake that I get many requests for and has been a hit every time and everywhere I have served it. Just make sure that pineapple is drained completely before adding it to filling mixture and that cakes are cooled completely before filling to avoid soggy cake. *Be sure to add cooling time for cake...

This cake was a disaster! It was dry and crumbly and the flavors were all wrong.

This cake was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very moist and flavorful. I think next time I would use less sugar.

I'm not usually a fan of fruit cakes, but this one was surprisingly delicious. The pineapple and coconut flavors were perfectly balanced and the cake was not too sweet.
