As spring blossoms, I can't help but think of the delectable and juicy strawberries that come with it. I know I'm not alone in craving these luscious red fruits! Being a sweets lover, I believe that few things can rival the heavenly pairing of fruits and cream. So, let's embark on a delicious journey to discover the perfect union of strawberries and cake in the heart of the capital!


Butterful&Creamorous


It's hard to believe that after two or so years of opening in Beijing, people are still lining up outside Butterful&Creamorous (well, at the Sanlitun branch at least). While the extensive range of strawberry desserts is definitely a crowd-pleaser, the real star of the menu is the salty cream puff. Topped with a medley of juicy strawberries, blueberries, mulberries, and other sour and sweet fruits, this dessert is simply irresistible.


The puff itself is light and airy, with a rich and creamy filling that is perfectly complemented by the saltiness of the cream topping. The combination of flavors and textures is simply divine, offering a taste that is both indulgent and satisfying.


Price: RMB 25 per piece

NiNiNi Dessert Kitchen


NiNiNi's signature dessert is the Strawberry and Watermelon flavored cake; it's a taste of Sydney that can be enjoyed in Beijing. The brand's roots are in Sydney's New Town neighborhood, where it has become an emblem of the city's cultural heritage. However, this dessert is more than just a combination of two fruits. It boasts an almond sponge cake layer made from imported Australian almond meal, with two layers of rose-flavored cream and a top layer of delicate flower petals and Iranian pistachios.


Price: RMB 55 per piece

Strasbourg


Strasbourg's latest seasonal offerings are sure to tempt any dessert lover's taste buds. Best amongst their indulgent treats is the delectable Red Velvet Tiramisu, which combines the richness of Tiramisu with the irresistible red velvet sponge cake. The cake's unique appearance is equally impressive, with a charming indentation on top that is filled with fresh, juicy strawberries. It's like having a fruit basket that's made entirely out of a cake!


Price: RMB 158 for 4 inch slice

Cloud D'or


While Cloud D’or has certainly received a lot of praise for their chocolate cakes, it's the fruit cakes that interest us most. Their raspberry red velvet cake is a standout, adorned with an elegant crown of fresh strawberries. And for those who love a creamy dessert, the Japanese-style strawberry cream cake is a must-try. With its delicate balance of flavors and textures, this cake is sure to satisfy even the most discerning palates.


Price: RMB 51 per piece

POLABERRY Amsterdam


POLABERRY Amsterdam is a Dutch brand that has limited branches in just five cities throughout China. Luckily for us, one of these is located in the capital. Their fruit dessert features fresh strawberries wrapped in chocolate and cream, creating a delectable taste and an exquisite appearance that will have you wanting to take a bite in no time.


Price: Varies

Holiland X Chi Forest


The half-baked cheesecake is the star product of Holiland with its velvety texture and luscious cheese flavor. The introduction of last year's strawberry flavor brought a fresh twist to the classic cheese. Initially, it was a limited-edition collaboration with Chi Forest but has now become a permanent fixture. While other flavors like strawberry toast and strawberry yam are well-liked, they don't quite match up to the popularity of this delectable treat.


Price: RMB 40
