To coincide with the Wimbledon season, the popular British retailer Marks & Spencer has introduced a brand-new flavor. Bringing a new twist to the classic combination of strawberries and cream, this unique dessert sandwich has been released.
The product is said to be inspired by Japanese “sweet sandos” — fruit sandwiches that originated in luxury fruit shops and have since gained popularity across Japan.
Visually appealing and neatly packaged, the sandwich is made with sweetened bread, Red Diamond™ strawberries, and whipped cream cheese. The strawberries, placed neatly between two slices of bread, appear to have been arranged using special techniques to maintain their shape and appeal.
Try it at home with this easy recipe:
Ingredients
Mascarpone – 150g
High-quality lemon curd – 80g
A pinch of vanilla powder (or seeds from half a pod)
White bread slices – 8 (crusts removed)
Strawberries – 200g (hulled and thinly sliced)
Method
Mix the mascarpone, lemon curd, and vanilla together.
Spread the mixture over 4 slices of bread.
Neatly arrange the sliced strawberries, then cover with the remaining 4 slices.
Cut into thin triangle shapes to serve.
This sandwich offers a clear cheesecake-like flavor. With the perfect balance of fruit and cream, no additional sugar is needed. It contains less than 10g of sugar, making it a healthier sweet choice.
Perfect for parties and picnics
This fruit-and-cream sandwich gives a refreshing twist to the usual sweet treats. With a flavor that feels almost like a slice of cake, it’s ideal for entertaining guests or enjoying as a daily indulgence.
Just in time for Wimbledon, this limited-edition creation — dubbed “cream sandwich time” — has taken the UK by storm. It’s an artistic, low-sugar, and nourishing option for those looking for a modern dessert experience.
