Just like the error message states you need to set href ="cakes.html" for the first element

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Lists and Links</title>
  </head>
  <body>

    <ul>
      <li><a href="cakes.html">Cakes</a></li>
      <li><a href="pies.html">Pies</a></li>
      <li><a href ="candy.html">Candy</a></li>
    </ul>

  </body>
</html>
