1) You need an equals = sign between the name of the attribute and its value: href="cakes.html"

2) You need a closing </a> tag on the other side of the text that you're making into a link

3) The url is case sensitive,. You have "Cakes.html" instead of "cakes.html".

4) The target attribute is not necessary for this challenge. It has to do with whether the webpage will open in a new window, etc..

    <li><a href="cakes.html">Cakes</a></li>
