Frozen sliced strawberries in syrup

Frozen sliced strawberries in syrup are fresh strawberries that have been sliced and preserved through freezing in a sweet liquid, typically a mixture of water and sugar known as syrup. This process helps maintain their sweet flavor and soft texture, making them easy to use in a variety of recipes year-round, even when they are out of season.

The origin of strawberries dates back to temperate regions of Europe and North America, although today their cultivation is global, with multiple varieties adapted to different climates. Frozen strawberries in syrup are usually produced in areas with high agricultural output to ensure quality and freshness before preservation.

Regarding their properties, strawberries are an excellent source of vitamin C, antioxidants, and dietary fiber. Being in syrup increases their natural sugar content, so it is important to consider this factor when using them in recipes to control the final sweetness. Freezing helps preserve most of their nutrients and characteristic flavor.
