About Berry crumb cake
Berry crumb cake is a popular dessert originating from European and American cuisines, featuring a moist cake base topped with fresh or frozen berries and a sweet crumbly streusel. Commonly made with flour, sugar, eggs, butter, and berries like blueberries, raspberries, or strawberries, it offers a rich, sweet flavor alongside a fruity tartness. Nutritionally, the cake provides carbohydrates from the flour and sugar, fats from the butter, and dietary fiber, Vitamin C, and antioxidants from the berries, though its caloric content can be high due to added sugars and fats. Its nutrient profile varies depending on the type and quantity of berries used, with fresh varieties contributing the most micronutrients.
Health Benefits

- Contains Vitamin C from the berries, supporting immune health and skin repair.
- Dietary fiber from berries aids digestion and promotes gut health.
Dietary Considerations
Selection and Storage
Store berry crumb cake in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days or refrigerate for up to a week for freshness. Warm slightly before serving for the best taste.
Common Questions About Berry crumb cake Nutrition
How many calories are in Berry Crumb Cake per serving?
Berry Crumb Cake typically contains around 250-400 calories per serving, depending on the recipe and portion size. Variations using full-fat ingredients may increase calorie content, while low-sugar or gluten-free options may reduce it slightly.
Can I eat Berry Crumb Cake on a keto diet?

What is the recommended portion size for Berry Crumb Cake?
A standard serving size is typically one slice, roughly 3-4 ounces (around 85-115 grams). To enjoy it as part of a balanced diet, pair it with a source of protein or eat it as an occasional treat in moderation.
How does Berry Crumb Cake compare to other desserts like fruit pies or muffins?

Both desserts offer sweetness, though Berry Crumb Cake highlights the texture of crumb topping combined with juicy berries.
