These scones were a disappointment. They were dry and flavorless. I won't be making them again.

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

I followed the recipe exactly and the scones turned out terrible. They were dry and crumbly. I'm not sure what went wrong.

I'm not a huge fan of raisins, so I used dried cherries instead. The scones turned out great! They were moist and flavorful, with a slightly tart cherry flavor.

These scones were a bit dry for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I'll try adding some extra butter next time.

These scones were a delightful surprise! I substituted dried cranberries for the raisins and added a sprinkle of orange zest. They turned out moist and flavorful, with a perfect crumb. My family loved them!
