These scones are a bit sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm allergic to coconut, so I substituted chopped walnuts instead. The scones were still delicious!

I had a hard time finding fresh pineapple, so I used canned pineapple instead. The scones still turned out great!

The scones were a little dry for my taste, but the flavor was still good. I think I'll try adding a little more butter next time.
