Cricket powder is a dry ingredient made from crickets, with species, defatting, processing and particle size varying between products.
About Cricket powder
Cricket powder is a powdered food ingredient made from crickets. The name does not specify the cricket species, whether the insects are whole or defatted, or the precise processing and particle size. It is distinct from whole crickets and from a product whose formulation includes other ingredients.
It is encountered as a dry powder that can be incorporated into formulated foods; colour, flavour, and texture depend on processing and concentration. The catalogue provides no specific intended use or recipe. Nutrition comparisons should match the cricket species where known, processing such as defatting, and any blending, rather than treating all cricket powders as identical.
