These scones were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I might have used too much sugar. Next time, I'll be sure to reduce the amount of sugar by half.

I love these scones! They're so easy to make and they always turn out perfectly. I especially love the fact that you can use any type of fruit or berries you like. My favorite combination is blueberries and raspberries.

These scones were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I might have used too much flour. Next time, I'll be sure to measure the flour carefully.

I've never made scones before, so I was a bit nervous about trying this recipe. But it turned out to be so easy! The scones were perfect. They were light and fluffy, and the flavor was just right. I'll definitely be making these again.

These scones were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I might have overmixed the dough. Next time, I'll be sure to mix it only until the ingredients are just combined.

These scones were a delightful treat! The texture was light and fluffy, with a perfect crumb. The flavor was rich and buttery, with a hint of sweetness. I especially enjoyed the addition of dried cranberries, which added a tart and tangy flavor.
