🍓 Fried Strawberry Cheesecake Sandwiches

📝 Introduction

📜 History

The concept of frying sweet sandwiches has roots in fairground and carnival culture, where deep-fried desserts became popular in the mid-20th century.

Combining these traditions into a fried sandwich is a modern-day culinary innovation, blending nostalgia with indulgence.
