Fresh, vibrant, and always in demand—strawberries are a menu essential 🍓

Known for their natural sweetness and versatility, strawberries shine across everything from classic desserts like shortcake and tarts to elevated savory dishes like balsamic-roasted applications and fresh salads. Beyond flavor, they’re a nutrient-dense ingredient guests love, bringing both visual appeal and added value to every plate.

From timeless pairings to modern twists, strawberries help you create dishes that feel both fresh and innovative. Available at FreshPoint Minnesota and other locations.

It's Wallpaper Wednesday...and we are talking about our cutting fresh solutions with FreshPoint FreshCuts®!

Pineapples are known to have a lot of waste: there’s the core, the shell, and the leaves, all of which you pay for, and depending on who on your team is doing the prep, there can be some significant waste left behind. That is money down the drain.

So, instead of trying to find uses or an outlet for this waste, we can cut the pineapple for you, whether that is cubed, or any other cut you need. 🍍

Add a little color to your workspace with this vibrant desktop wallpaper. ⁠Click the link to download the wallpaper and then scan to see this month’s recipe idea of our take on Sweet & Sour Pork featuring FreshCuts cubed pineapples. Coupled with herbaceous veggies and the brightness of ginger, this is a match made in heaven when combined with the rich flavor of pork butt from Buckhead Meat & Seafood and Sweet and Sour sauce from European Imports. 🍍

Sweet, juicy, and made for standout summer menus 🍑

Peaches bring natural sweetness, vibrant color, and a refreshing bite that elevates both savory and sweet dishes. Their versatility makes them an easy add across your menu—from starters to desserts and everything in between.

Try grilling them to pair with pork or chicken, layering into burrata or salad features for that sweet and tangy balance, or dicing them into fresh salsas for seafood. They’re also perfect for desserts, syrups, and seasonal cocktails that keep guests coming back.

Get in touch with your sales consultant today to start featuring peaches on your next menu. Available at FreshPoint Minnesota and other locations.
