index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>

    <title>Lists and Links</title>
  </head>
  <body>

   <ul> 
     Cakes
     Pies
     Candy



    </ul>


  </body>
</html>

You're half way there. The <ul></ul> tags are correct, but you need tags surrounding each of the items themselves, specifically Cakes, Pies, and Candy each individually need to be surrounded by their own tags as well.

every element in an unordered <ul> and ordered list <ol> have their list items in a <li> tag

<ul>
  <li></li>
  <li></li>
  <li></li>
</ul>

just did it and the instructions after it tells you your answer is wrong. says to put <ul></ul> which is clearly the wrong answer because martin lecke is right. kind of confusing
