This soufflé was a disaster! It fell flat and was completely inedible.

This soufflé was not as good as I expected. It was a bit too dense and the flavor was not very strong.

This soufflé was a bit bland. I think I would add more cheese next time.

This soufflé was a hit with my family! It was light and fluffy, with a delicious cheesy flavor. The shallots and smoked Gouda added a nice touch of smokiness and depth of flavor. I will definitely be making this again.
