These bars are a great way to use up fresh raspberries. I love picking them from my garden and using them in this recipe.

These bars were a bit too crumbly for my liking. I think I'll try using a different recipe next time.

I had some trouble getting the bars to set properly. I think I might have overcooked them.

These bars were a little too sweet for my taste, but they were still good. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a huge fan of lemon desserts, but these bars were surprisingly good. The raspberry filling really balances out the tartness of the lemon.
