For example, despite its name, it is not technically classified as a berry and, just to confuse things further, it is actually a member of the rose family. Additionally, the small hard pieces on a strawberry are often referred to as seeds but they are actually a type of dry fruit (known as achene) that contain their own seed within. With this amount of uncertainty, it\u2019s no wonder there\u2019s an entire museum in Belgium dedicated to them! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Museo Sans 300';\"><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: small;\">The global love for strawberries is not surprising at all, due to their full flavour and bright red hue. However, strawberries are not just great tasting, they\u2019re also incredibly good for you. At just 30 calories per 100g, the fruit is a rich source of phytonutrients, antioxidants, minerals and vitamins \u2013 helping to protect against premature aging as well as promoting good digestive and cardiovascular health. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Museo Sans 300';\"><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: small;\">A perennial plant, strawberries grow back year on year. Unlike some fruits, they do not ripen after being picked \u2013 so it is vital they are not harvested until the optimal time. Here at SVZ, we work with an expert team of agronomists and trusted farmers to ensure our strawberries are perfect every time.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Museo Sans 300';\"><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: small;\">Strawberries have been a popular flavour for many years, and while they are still going strong as a classic choice, manufacturers are regularly creating sophisticated combinations for discerning consumers, including strawberry with vanilla and black pepper or strawberries, beets and banana.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-family: 'Museo Sans 300';\"><span style=\"color: #000000; font-size: small;\">Whether you\u2019re selling smoothies, making muffins or inventing ice cream, if you are interested in boosting consumer appeal with our premium strawberry purees and concentrates, get in touch today! <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Is there a fruit as universally loved as the strawberry?
