Fresas con Crema Tips

What is fresas con crema?

Fresas con crema, or strawberries and cream, is an authentic Mexican dessert. Just like the name implies, fresas con crema consists of fresh strawberries served in a sweet cream. It's commonly served as a dessert or snack. Have leftover strawberries on hand? Use them up in these fantastic strawberry dessert recipes.

Is Mexican crema the same as heavy cream?

Mexican crema is not the same as heavy cream, although if you're making Mexican crema from scratch, you'll often find that heavy cream is among the list of ingredients. Mexican crema is most relatable to creme fraiche. It's very thick, creamy and slightly tangy. Creme fraiche can be a great substitute if you can't find Mexican crema at the store.

How long does crema last?

Most Mexican cremas last for up to two weeks when stored in the refrigerator. If you bought canned crema, please refer to the label for storage instructions.
