There’s a chill in the air and frost on the windows. Scarves are being thrown over cardigans, and cardigans are being set aside for puffy jackets. Whether your holiday season will be accompanied by ice scrapers and snow plows or nothing more than a mere cool breeze, there’s no denying it–as the oft-quoted TV show regularly reminded us, “Winter is coming.” And what better treat to accompany hot cocoa and Christmas carols than…strawberries?

We get it. When most people think strawberries, they think Fourth of July and swimming pools. Fruit salad at the company picnic. But why? With their jewel-toned hue and crisp sweetness, strawberries are a natural in everything from rustic holiday pies to sophisticated fruit and cheese platters. And lucky for us, Well•Pict grows their exemplary berries year ’round. Why Well•Pict? The simple answer is the consistent, close-your-eyes-it’s-so-good taste. Dig a little deeper and you’ll learn that all varieties of Well•Pict berries are non-GMO and the result of years of research and care. They’re not berries that are “good for winter,” they’re berries that are simply good. 

Now that those visions of sugarplums dancing in your head have been replaced by twirling strawberries, here’s a beautiful way to highlight them on your holiday table, Well•Pict’s take on Hanukkah jelly donuts:
