Strawberry varieties and best uses

The conversions above are the same whatever variety you use; the difference is what each is good for. Here is how the common strawberry varieties compare.

Variety	Best for
Albion	Fresh eating and freezing: firm, sweet, day-neutral; holds shape sliced.
Camarosa	All-purpose: the large standard supermarket berry, good fresh or baked.
Chandler	Jam and fresh: sweet and aromatic, soft when very ripe.
Seascape	Fresh and preserves: balanced day-neutral, sweet-tart and juicy.
Honeoye	Jam and freezing: early and tart, keeps colour and flavour cooked.
Alpine (Fraises des bois)	Garnish and desserts: tiny and intensely fragrant, eaten whole.

Which should I pick?

For fresh eating and shortcake, Albion or Seascape are the pick: sweet, firm, and reliably stocked. No Albion? Camarosa, the large standard supermarket berry, works in any recipe. For jam and freezing, Honeoye or Chandler hold their flavour and aroma when cooked. Alpine strawberries are a garnish, intensely fragrant but too tiny to measure by the cup.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does a medium strawberry weigh in pounds?: A medium strawberry weighs about 0.03 lb (0.42 oz, 12 g). A small one is about 0.02 lb and a large one about 0.04 lb, so the pound total shifts with size. Set the size selector to match the strawberries you actually have before trusting a per-pound count, since the same weight in pounds maps to a different number of whole strawberries at each size.
