Each list item (Cakes, Pies, Candy) needs to be a link. Use anchor tags to do this. Example:

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

Make sure you close the anchor tag with the </a>!

Each text item in the list becomes a clickable link to an html page. So the word 'Cakes' links to a cakes page, the word 'Pies' links to the pie page and the word 'Candy' links to the candy page. Good luck!
