Hello! Our chefs work with different brands of fruit purees, depending on what is available in their region. Check with your different distributors to see what brands they carry. I will say that strawberry seems to be one that some manufacturers struggle with, so don't be afraid to taste a few different brands before using one in a recipe. And note that if you chose to make your own, many commercial products add 10% sugar to strawberry puree, and you may wish to do the same.
