I'm not a huge fan of coconut, but these cupcakes were surprisingly good. The lime frosting really helped to balance out the sweetness of the coconut.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cupcakes didn't turn out as moist as I expected. I'm not sure what went wrong.

The cupcakes were easy to make and turned out beautifully. The frosting was a bit too tart for my taste, but that's just personal preference.
