Strawberry desserts that taste like summer. Try 13 refreshing ideas perfect for potlucks, BBQs, brunches, or anytime you want something sweet.

Strawberry dessert recipes.

I don’t care if it’s not spring or summer, I feel like strawberry desserts should be made year round. In fact, strawberry season should be every season.

I mean when you look at the recipes below, just tell me that they don’t look like something you’d rush to the store to get ingredients for, and then be sitting on the couch watching Netflix and eating straight out of the pan a few hours later. Like they’re kind of necessary.

And if you need a bit of an estrogen boost in your life, then grab some of these strawberry dessert recipes, make them for a brunch with friends or just enjoy them solo. It’s up to you.

1. Fresh Strawberry Sheet Cake

I just had a strawberry sheet cake yesterday. It was so good and while it wasn’t this exact recipe (a friend made it), I am gonna tell you to make this right away. Sheet cakes are pretty easy and this also has cream cheese frosting and fresh strawberries, so that’s an immediate yes from me.

If you’re craving pie and strawberries at the same time, then why are you even debating? Like this is it. This is what you need right now. And while it is a bit more of a process than something as simple as a mug cake, I’d say it’s worth it.

Also, it’s based off of a real recipe you can get in a popular video game called Celeste. So if you’re a bit of a nerd, then put this on your list of desserts with strawberries to make!

I feel like even if you’re a die-hard “I don’t eat anything unless it’s in season” kind of person, you can’t argue with this one. I think everyone knows that crisps are winter (and fall) comfort desserts.

Dutch babies are kind of the perfect breakfast comfort food. You know they’re not healthy, but when you’re making a Dutch baby, you’re not really thinking about the calories.

Just top it with some fresh strawberries, pour yourself some coffee, put on a good playlist, and you’re set.

Tarts are so good and I honestly think this is probably the perfect dessert to bring to a get-together. It’s the kind that makes other people a bit jealous of your cooking skills.

But jokes aside, this really does give living in the French countryside vibes.

I don’t care if you’re vegan or not, this looks good and you should probably make it.

It’s no bake, looks super creamy, uses golden Oreos, and it’s topped with freeze-dried strawberries (which have amazing texture). Also it looks super pretty and the perfect thing to bring to a summer party.

I feel like this is the kind of dessert a princess would have, and since you’re royalty too, then that means you should make it for yourself.

Also, this strawberry dessert (along with the others above) would be great for a strawberry themed party. Just a thought!
