I've made these scones several times now and they are always a hit. They are so easy to make and they always turn out perfectly. I love the orange and currant flavors, and they are the perfect size for a snack or breakfast.

These scones were a bit of a disappointment. They were not as fluffy as I expected, and the orange flavor was not very strong. I would not make them again.

I made these scones for my family and they loved them! They were so fluffy and moist, and the orange and currant flavors were perfect together. I will definitely be making these again.

These scones were good, but not great. The orange flavor was a bit too strong for my taste, and the scones were a bit dry. I would not make them again.
