National Strawberry Parfait Day

Savor the taste of this sweet summer treat on June 25th for National Strawberry Parfait Day. The day is celebrated at the peak of strawberry season so you can be sure to have some farmstand fresh strawberries in your parfait. 

The word “parfait” means perfect in French, a fitting name for such a delicious dessert. The first recipe for strawberry parfait dates back to 1892 in France, of course.

Parfait of any kind is traditionally made with ice cream or frozen custard layered with whipped cream and fruit. It is often served in a tall stemmed glass similar to a champagne flute.   

Modern variations often use yogurt or pudding in place of the ice cream or custard and add crunchy granola for a healthier version of the parfait that makes the successful leap from dessert to breakfast. 

Adding strawberries to the mix just makes things even healthier. Strawberries are packed with vitamin C, potassium, folic acid, and fiber. 

Don’t miss out on the scrumptious seasonal tastes of this versatile but always delicious treat for breakfast or dessert on June 25th for National Strawberry Parfait Day.
