MARRON - One of the true great flavours
Nothing can beat the taste and presentation of fresh Western Australian Marron. • Its good value - Marron have the highest meat/shell ratio of all the freshwater crayfish (up to 42%) Being farmed crustaceans, supplies are available year round and are not subject to price fluctuations as with many wild caught products. • Its good for you - Marron is very high in healthy Omega - 3 fatty acids and low in calories. • Its easy to prepare and cook - Presentation is exceptional and preparation is easy. The shell cooks red with shelled meat vibrant red on pristine white flesh. Meat has a high visual impact.

whether it is sustainable. Marron are without doubt, a premium product with a distinct flavour and presentation, they are very much sought
after by restaurants and chefs around the World looking to bring something different to the tables of their patrons.
