With the Wimbledon 2025 final this weekend, strawberries and cream has been a popular treat that is enjoyed during this time of the year at the prestigious Grand Slam in the United Kingdom. Unfortunately for fans in India watching the two-week tournament on their television screens, enjoying strawberries is difficult because they are currently not in season in the country. 

While you may be able to get them online, there is nothing like fresh strawberries from the market, that are usually available from December to March. Interestingly, the monsoon brings with it a whole lot of seasonal fruits, that also include berries. As the women’s and men’s final takes place over this weekend, Mumbaikars can unwind by putting on their chef’s hat in the kitchen, and whipping up some berries with cream, to enjoy while you watch American Amanda Anisimova takes on Pole Iga Swiatek today, and Italian Jannik Sinner battles it out with Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz on Sunday, July 13, after demolishing Serbian Novak Djokovic. 

With such thrilling encounters in store, apart from the doubles encounters, mid-day asked Indian chefs to share some fun and innovative recipes to help you indulge this weekend. They not only share delicious recipes with berries and cream, but also other seasonal fruits accompanied with cream that is not only limited to European influences but also Asian and Peruvian fusion.
