I'm allergic to raspberries. Do you think I could substitute another berry, like strawberries or blackberries?

I'm thinking of making these shortcakes for a party next week. Do you think they would hold up well if I made them a day ahead?

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my shortcakes turned out dry and crumbly. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what happened.

These shortcakes were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I would use less sugar next time.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of blueberries, but I'm so glad I did! The berries were cooked perfectly and the shortcakes were delicious. I'll definitely be making these again.

These shortcakes were a hit with my family! The combination of raspberries and blueberries was perfect, and the shortcakes themselves were light and fluffy. I will definitely be making these again.
