Cricket protein powder is made from crickets, and the main ingredient is cricket flour.  Cricket protein powder provides a full nutritional profile and amino acids and BCAAs important in creating the best cricket protein powder.  Because cricket protein powder and cricket protein supplements use full crickets, they provide a cleaner source of digestible protein that is less processed and contains naturally occurring calcium, iron, B12, and more.  Check out our cricket protein powder with naturally 60% protein weight by clicking here!

Yes.  It can be used in baking but because of the high protein profile and content, you must add other flours to pure cricket flour before baking.  Typically, people will use a combinations of tapioca flour, coconut flour, or other gluten-free flours mixed with cricket flour to make baked goods.  Of course you may also add a few scoops of our cricket flour to your favorite recipes to boost your protein and nutrient profiles.  Check out all of our recipes available on our website here or check out our published “Cricket Flours Cookbook: All Cricket, No Bull…” available with 50+ recipes and insights into baking and using cricket protein.

Yes. If you have a crustacean shellfish allergy, you may be allergic to crickets and should not try them. Crickets are arthropods and just like shrimp, crabs, and lobsters, and they can cause allergic reactions for individuals with a crustacean shellfish allergy.

In nature, crickets are omnivorous and eat almost anything. However, our crickets are raised in facilities designed for human consumption and are fed a diet of high-protein and vegetables designed specifically for their nutritional needs.

Dried and roasted crickets contain an average of 55-70% protein by weight.  While nutrition and feed used to raise crickets can have an impact on the final nutritional details, we have included some additional details on the protein in a cricket and nutrition that can be found here.

Cricket protein and cricket powder naturally has a great source of protein and nutrients.  Cricket Flour is made by milling whole roasted crickets into a fine powder that includes all of the essential amino acids, B12, iron, calcium, Omega-3s and Omega-6s.  For a full list of the cricket protein amino acids, check out our post here.

Depending on the cricket processing and milling equipment, it takes approximately 5,000 crickets to make one pound of cricket flour.

All of our crickets are humanely killed by using their natural ability to go into stasis when they experience cold temperatures.  Because they are coldblooded, our crickets enter stasis when the temperature drops, and then we quickly freeze them while they are in this inactive state.

No.  Typically, vegans and vegetarians do not eat crickets.  However, if their decision is based on environmental or sustainable concerns, crickets are a great solution.  Crickets use only 1/10th the water and 1/6th the feed of competing protein sources such as beef.  In addition, crickets do not produce the significant levels of methane, and do not feed solely on the same crops that people do.
