Strawberry is red in colour due to the presence of the pigment anthocyanin. These pigments are made in plants by combining of a molecule of some type of sugar with a molecule of an anthocyanidin.Strawberries become red only during their ripening process during which sugar becomes concentrated in the fruit.
