Cricket flour / Cricket protein Powder
Cricket Flour
It is time for cricket bread!
Do you want to bake a thousand pieces of cricket bread or five thousand cricket rolls? With our 1000g cricket powder bags, you can do it!
The plain house cricket powder contains 71% protein and tastes mildly like rye bread or a roasted chickpea.
Dried insects are kind of concentrated meat like beef jerky as they lose about 75% of their weight as the water evaporates during the roasting/drying.
It takes over one thousand house crickets (acheta domesticus) to produce 100 grams of our protein-rich cricket flour. One hundred percent natural, free from artificial colors, flavorings, preservatives, and MSG. Its high protein and low saturated fat and carbohydrate content make for a healthy cooking ingredient.
Technically our ground-up crickets are not flour but ‘floured’ so they will behave differently in baked goods as opposed to wheat, coconut, or nut flours. For this reason, it’s best used in conjunction with another flour or flour substitute. If used in large amounts it may adversely affect texture so less is more.
Try the cricket powder on yogurt and you want to have it in that way every day!
This product can be ordered in three grain-sized (fine, standard, rough) but the qualities fine and rough will have a long lead time and the price has to be negotiated customer by customer.
Nature loves insectivores!
Insect food can help us in keeping the food system within environmental limits. To get a kilogram of beef, one needs 12 times more feed, 100 times more room, and 22 000 times more water than growing a kilogram of insects. The insects offer a new, lasting, ethical, and delicious way to produce the proteins which are necessary to all of us.
Our crickets may not be the cheapest because we only accept the best!
After an extensive comparison, we found a top certified and socially responsible cricket farmer whose crickets are the most delicious on the market.
The certificates for our crickets
FDA, GMP, GAP, HACCP, and BSCI.

Warning!
Insects may cause an allergic reaction to those who are allergic to, for example, dust mites or shrimp. Food allergens are proteins. Sensitization to insect proteins is possible, just like to any other food proteins. The proteins that insects contain are similar to the proteins of e.g. crustaceans and mollusks. Thus persons who are allergic to prawns, for example, may have an allergic reaction from insect food. Insects may contain traces of gluten.
