I can't wait to try these tea cakes with different flavors of tea. I think they would be delicious with green tea or chamomile tea.

I'm not a big fan of Earl Grey tea, so I wasn't sure if I would like these tea cakes. But I was pleasantly surprised! The flavor of the tea is very subtle and it pairs perfectly with the lemon.

These tea cakes are a bit too dense for my taste. I think I'll try using a different recipe next time.

The frosting on these tea cakes is a bit too sweet for me. I'll probably try making a different frosting next time.

These tea cakes are a bit dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more butter next time.
