Description

Frozen strawberries are fresh strawberries that have been rapidly frozen to preserve their flavor, texture, and nutrients. This process allows you to enjoy their characteristic sweet and slightly acidic flavor all year round, even out of season.

The origin of strawberries is broad, as they are cultivated in many regions of the world, primarily originating from temperate regions of the northern hemisphere. Frozen strawberries usually come from crops in countries such as the United States, Mexico, Spain, or Chile, where they are harvested at their optimal ripeness and quickly frozen to maintain their quality.

Regarding their properties, frozen strawberries retain a large part of the vitamins and antioxidants present in the fresh fruit, especially vitamin C, folic acid, and fiber. They are a good option to add to smoothies, desserts, jams, or baking recipes, providing flavor and nutrients without worrying about their short shelf life.

In different Hispanic American countries, frozen strawberries may simply be known as fresa congelada, frutillas congeladas (especially in Argentina and Chile), or frutas congeladas when referring to mixes that include strawberries.
