This was the best strawberry shortcake I've ever had! The cake was so moist and fluffy, and the strawberries were perfectly sweet and tart. I will definitely be making this again.

The cake was a little dry for my taste, but the strawberry topping was amazing. I would definitely make this again, but I would use a different cake recipe.

This was my first time making an upside-down cake and it was surprisingly easy. The instructions were clear and easy to follow. I'm definitely going to try more upside-down cakes in the future.

I followed the recipe exactly and it turned out perfectly. The only thing I would change is to use a little less sugar in the strawberry topping. It was a bit too sweet for my taste.
