About Strawberry strudel

Strawberry strudel is a dessert pastry originating from Central and Eastern Europe, especially associated with Austrian and Hungarian cuisines. Traditionally, it consists of thin, flaky layers of dough filled with a sweet strawberry mixture, often enhanced with sugar and spices. Nutritionally, the fruit filling provides vitamins such as vitamin C and antioxidants, while the pastry adds carbohydrates and fats. However, due to added sugars and refined ingredients, strawberry strudel is typically an energy-dense food with minimal protein and fiber.

Health Benefits

• Rich in vitamin C from strawberries, supporting immune function and skin health.
• Strawberries provide antioxidants, such as ellagic acid and anthocyanins, which help combat free radicals and reduce inflammation.
• Contains potassium from strawberries, which supports healthy blood pressure and muscle function.
