Our Ingredient Selection
We chose mild cheddar for its sublime creamy texture and delectably cheesy finish. It strikes a perfect balance, adding depth without overpowering the harmonious medley of flavours.
Our secret weapon, Philadelphia Garlic & Herbs, is a masterstroke of convenience and boost in flavour. It lends an instant jolt of cheesy garlic and herb undertones.
Our Fishcake Mix brings both practicality and a guarantee of consistency. This is no ordinary shortcut, it elevates the flavour substantially while slashing the preparation time by a significant 80%. With it, your croquettes will turn out flawlessly, time after time.
Lurpak with Crushed Garlic is a match made in heaven. Each spoonful carries a rich gust of garlic and butter, encapsulating two powerhouse ingredients.
Relying on Ceres Pre-Dusts isn't just a smart move; it's a flavorful one too. This clever addition lends another tantalising layer of taste to your recipe.
The Ceres Rustic Breadcrumb is our breadcrumb of choice for this particular creation. Delightfully crunchy and flavourful, they ensure a low oil pick-up and contribute to the impeccable texture of the final product.

- Shape the mixture into your preferred portion sizes, then let them chill to firm up.
- Following this, proceed to coat each portion in pre-dust number two, followed by an egg wash (or dip in thin batter mix), and finally, roll them in the Ceres Rustic Breadcrumb.
