Its origin is linked to European culinary traditions where the combination of fruits and alcohol creates elegant treats.

Strawberries encased in a transparent, quivering jelly texture create a harmony of sweetness and slight tartness. This dessert is perfect for a romantic dinner or a festive event, symbolizing sophistication and celebration.
