This little cake is packed full of a lot of Island taste, coconut, rum, pineapple and macadamia nuts, how can that combination be anything but good? All we need are the Island music and cool winds! Didn't allow for cooling or chilling time.

1 (18 1/2 ounce) package yellow cake mix
1 (3 3/4 ounce) package vanilla instant pudding mix
1 (15 ounce) coco lopez
1/2 cup bacardi white plus rum

1/3 cup vegetable oil
4 eggs
1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, well drained
