Awful! I will never make this again. It fell, jumped, exploded, etc out of the pan. It was just one hot, sticky mess! The reviews warned that it would be hard to remove from the pan, but I never thought it would fall out in so many pieces... I know this cake will not become a favorite at my house. But it does taste sweet...in a bowl eaten with a spoon.

OMG!!! This cake is superdelicious... Despite of the error on my part the cake turned out moist and good.i wanted to half the recipe - by mistake i halved the first 2 ingredients and because of some distraction dint halved the amt of wafers. The result was a super moist cake , not that sweet ( because of my error. I can imagine what the cake would HAVE BEEN if i was more careful...!

Note : Dont hesitate in trying this recipe,, its really good plus u dont get such recipes everyday!

My family loved this cake, just like most everyone else the cake did stick in my pan, I used a plactic knife to run arund the edges and it fell right out. Way to much glaze, and I did not care for the lemon flavor with the cake. Another reviewer recommended using pineapple juice in place of the lemon juice this is a great idea. I lined the pan with pineapple rings, like an upside down pineapple cake and it was excellent.

When I saw the show with the Coconut cake with Coconut Lemon Glaze it sounded like a recipe I had in 1964, sure enough it was but did not have the glaze on it. The recipe in 1964 was called "Vanilla Wafer Cake". I have not make this cake in years but will bake and use the glaze this time. I do remember that I did not have any proble with it sticking to the pan, I used the tube pan with the removeable bottom. Happy Baking!!

This cake is awesome! I used a silicone bundt pan and it worked out great! It came out of the pan with no problem. Way too much glaze though. Could have done it with half what the recipe called for.

We thought this was fantastic! I didn't have any problem at all with it sticking. I would only make half the glaze though, I actually only used about 3/4 of what the recipe made and could of done with a bit less. I will totally make this again and again!!

We absolutely loved this cake. It was moist, tangy, and delicious. It got better and better. Only lasted two days so I don't know after that! It was difficult to remove from pan, but I just molded the parts together and flipped it over before pouring on glaze and it looked perfect. Thanks for a delicious recipe!

I'm not a baker by any stretch of the imagination but I wanted to try this. It was not pretty. I had trouble getting it out of the pan, even though it was buttered and floured and I followed the recipe to the letter. Way too much glaze...IF I ever make it again I'll just make a powdered sugar/lemon glaze. I'm not a huge coconut fan so what was in the cake was plenty without it being in the frosting too. While it was not a prize winning looking cake, we'll see how it tastes. I'm going to ask other people I know to try making this too and see if they had the same problems I did.
