Strawberries Romanoff are a classic dessert prepared with fresh strawberries, orange liqueur like Grand Marnier or Curaçao, sugar, whipped cream, and often vanilla ice cream. Auguste Escoffier created it while working in London in the 1920s.

However, it was initially called "Fraises a l'Americaine" or "Strawberries American Style" rather than strawberries Romanoff. The dessert got the Romanoff moniker in the 1940s when it was reinvented by the so-called Prince Michael Romanoff, who was not Russian royalty as he falsely claimed.

He presented the dessert in his Beverly Hills restaurant, Romanoff's, which was popular with Hollywood stars of the era, and made it famous, so it's prepared to this day. The original Escoffier version pairs strawberries with Curaçao, orange juice, and whipped cream.
