Instar Farming

[Instar Farming @InstarFarming]

300kg of whole roasted crickets packed and ready to go out to a customer. That's about 5,000,000 tasty crickets! 😲🦗🦗🦗

Our #crickets are now dried using #solar power! On a sunny day like today all the power we use in the kitchen, including storing frozen crickets, comes from renewable solar 🌞🦗🥳

The new Bugvita range is out now! (Made with Instar Farming Crickets!) Same great UK farmed crickets, new flavours and packaging. Thank you to the over 300 people who have left reviews on our website and Amazon, you helped develop these awesome products 😀🦗🦗🦗

A 20kg bag of 🦗🦗🦗 fresh out the freezer - if harvested crickets are clean and healthy it makes processing them into food ingredients much easier

It's just not cricket 😉

Exited to be working on our first batch of locusts - hopefully a product we can add to our lineup in the future, watch this space!

It's Buzzing day, and this week, it's an Africa special! You'll find a round-up of exciting insect companies & projects on the continent; a Q&A with Dr Chrysantus Tanga of @icipe; a recipe for mango cricket smoothies with @InstarFarming cricket powder. https://t.co/VONSweDyxA

All our fine #cricketpowder is screened down to <125 microns. Unlike many other cricket powders it works really well in drinks applications. We also offer a bakery grade cricket powder which is has a coarser texture and darker colour - perfect for bread and brownies!

400kg of frozen #crickets ❄ 🦗❄🦗❄🦗Having plenty of freezer storage is really important to help balance farm output / kitchen output. We are going to get a walk in freezer to help with this

#Edibleinsects are one of the 4 biggest food & drink trends for 2021 according to @Forbes 🥳

Here are 2 of the many reasons why eating insects is the future: They are farmed and produced easily & cheaper than meat.

Crickets are a great source of healthy fats but oxygen and sunlight can both cause the fats to degrade. To ensure our crickets stay fresh for as long as possible we pack them under a light vacuum (so they don't get crushed!) in sturdy foil bags.

[Emilie Filou @EmilieFilou]

For the last time this year, it's Buzzing day today! This week, I reflect on the big insect news of 2020, feat @Ynsect, @Purina & @GoterraCBR;. Also, I talk to @bugrecipes about their new bug kits; and I make mealworm & kale pesto rigatoni. Yum! https://t.co/VONSwelX90

Really looking forward to interviewing Jo Wise **please send me any questions you want me to ask about insect farming/insects for food**

[Instar Farming @InstarFarming]

There's as much digestible protein in 1kg of our #cricketpowder as there is in 5 whole chickens
