I followed the recipe exactly and the sweet potatoes turned out great. The glaze was a little too sweet for my taste, but that's easily adjustable.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my sweet potatoes turned out mushy. I followed the recipe exactly, but they just didn't cook evenly.

These sweet potatoes were a bit too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I would probably reduce the amount of sugar in the glaze next time.

I'm not a big fan of sweet potatoes, but these were actually really good. The glaze was the perfect balance of sweet and savory.

These sweet potatoes were a disappointment. They were dry and the glaze was too thick.
