Product info

If adding insect flour to our everyday recipe means getting an extra dose of planet-positive protein, and essential micronutrients such as calcium and iron, why shouldn’t we all start eating insects? And do you know what? It’s incredibly easy to use buffalo worm flour to create wildly tasty, high-protein and innovative dishes!

WHY USE IT? Let’s be honest, getting the right intake of protein and micronutrients is not easy if you want to have a planet-positive diet. Our natural all-purpose buffalo worm flour contains 57% high-quality protein for efficient muscle building, all essential amino acids, and high levels of micronutrients. Bugs require drastically less water, land, feed and energy than traditional animal protein sources, they are a sustainable superfood!

HOW TO USE? Thanks to its incredible nutritional values (57% protein content) you only need to add a small quantity to your recipes. The ratio varies among recipes, we suggest using up to 20% insect flour in the mix. Buffalo worm flour can be used in almost any dish to make it more nutritious, boosting its protein and micronutrient content. For us, it’s a perfect addition to all things sweet!

Prodotto SUPER ed ottima esperienza di acquisto!

Ho acquistato la farina di grillo, incuriosito dalla ricchezza di proteine complete di tutti gli aminoacidi essenziali e sostenibili, di vitamina B12 e ferro.
Sono molto attento alla sostenibilità ambientale e all'impatto che un prodotto può avere sul nostro pianeta e la farina di grillo risponde a questi requisiti, più di tante altre proteine di origine animale.
Nel giro di 36 ore dalla conferma d'ordine ho ricevuto il prodotto. Proverò presto anche gli altri prodotti Small Giants.

Un buon compromesso

L'ho trovata gradevole e adatta a tanti tipi di preparazioni proteiche, non mi sono assolutamente sentita a disagio nell'utilizzo di queste nuove proteine, è una valida alternativa alle altre.

Grande prodotto e Grande servizio

Prodotto molto buono, lo ho usato per fare biscotti e piadine, un gusto che migliora e non peggiora la pietanza. Inoltre il servizio clienti è ottimo, i corrieri hanno avuto problemi nel trovare il mio indirizzo e dopo aver contattato il team di Small Giants è stato risolto il problema in un pomeriggio.

Ottimo prodotto

Provata la polvere di buffalo worms nella preparazione di vari dolci come biscotti, cookies, pancakes, nella misura del 10-15%. Gusto neutro. Visti i valori nutrizionali mi auguro una maggiore diffusone dei prodotti a base di questi insetti.
