Cristal Blue

SOPAC's New Caledonia Blue Prawns offer unparalleled quality and sustainability, with a unique sweet taste, low-density farming, and full traceability. Accounting for only 0.02% of global consumption, these prawns represent a premium, eco-conscious choice.

Sourced from the pristine waters of New Caledonia, these prawns are raised using sustainable aquaculture practices that respect nature and local traditions. Ideal for gourmet chefs, they offer exceptional quality and flavor that enhance any culinary creation.

  • Ultra-Limited Production: Only 1,200 tons of Blue Prawns are harvested annually, representing a mere 0.02% of global consumption.
  • Farming Density: SOPAC farms at low densities of 30-40 prawns per cubic meter, compared to the average of 200-250.
  • Natural Diet: SOPAC prawns eat a natural diet of phytoplankton and zooplankton, ensuring a low carbon footprint.

Features

  • Type: Blue Prawns (Litopenaeus stylirostris)
  • Origin: New Caledonia
  • Size: Various sizes available (e.g., U8-9, U10-12, U12-14)
  • Packaging: 1kg, head-on and shell-on

Taste Profile Blue prawns from New Caledonia have a slightly sweet, iodized taste with firm, melt-in-the-mouth flesh. Their unique flavor is due to the purity of the lagoon waters and natural plankton diet. Once cooked, the prawns take on a beautiful orange-pink hue.
