Award-winning fresh whole milk and butter, free-range eggs, selected flours and breadcrumbs, combined with the best quality jamón, cheeses, meat, seasonal vegetables, and seafood to create a range of different recipes. No preservatives, thickeners, artificial colours or flavours. Truly artisan croquetas.
Our recipes are inspired by the flavours of Spain and the fresh, seasonal produce of Australia. Not to be confused with the potato filled croquette, La Croqueteria croquetas are traditional Spanish croquetas made with a creamy, slow cooked béchamel sauce filling combined with fresh ingredients, encased by breadcrumbs, perfect for frying.
