This shortcake was just okay. The shortcakes were a bit dry and the berries were not very sweet. I also found the whipped cream to be too runny.

This shortcake was a disappointment. The shortcakes were dry and crumbly, and the berries were tart. I also found the whipped cream to be too sweet. I would not recommend this recipe.
