Suitability for freezing — wild strawberry

Fragaria vesca L.

The suitability of wild strawberries for freezing is determined by their ability to retain intensive aroma, flavor, color, and fruit structure during quick or blast freezing. A high-quality frozen product is characterized by minimal juice loss upon defrosting.

In the reference 4 varieties crop Wild strawberry, where this is mentioned in the description.

When using the correct freezing technology, wild strawberries retain the integrity of the fruits and the organoleptic properties of the fresh berry. Unlike garden strawberries, they possess a more intensive aroma and smaller fruit size, which allows them to be successfully used in confectionery production for creating mousses, desserts, and glazes.

The technological value of the crop during freezing is determined by its ability to release less water than other strawberry species, which is critical for maintaining the texture of creams and dough. Key indicators of suitability are the absence of surface moisture on the berries before processing and high juice-holding capacity after thawing.
