Ever wondered what goes into making a snack that’s bold, exciting, and still safe enough for your mum to approve?

Here’s your behind-the-scenes look at how HexaCrunch® goes from farm → flavour → crunch with zero shortcuts.

Sourcing the Right Insects

It all starts at the farm - and no, not a random backyard farm in the jungle.
 We work only with certified insect farms that follow strict hygiene, feed, and environmental standards.

  • Crickets are raised in clean, controlled facilities.
  • They’re fed a safe, grain-based diet. 
  • Every batch is inspected to meet food-grade requirements.

In short: no dodgy stuff. Just clean, premium protein from a responsible source.

Heat-Treating & Baking, Not Frying

Once the crickets are milled into fine, high-quality cricket powder, the magic begins.

HexaCrunch® crackers are baked, not fried; meaning:

  • Lower oil
  • Cleaner taste 
  • Bigger crunch
  • More stable, predictable quality per batch

The cricket powder is blended with whole-grain jasmine rice and our signature seasonings, then baked at high temperatures to keep everything safe and shelf-stable.

Big flavour, zero greasy thumbs.

Packaging That Protects the Crunch

The moment each batch is done, we pack it fast to lock in freshness.

Our stand-up pouches are:

  • Multi-layered to block moisture, oxygen, and sunlight
  • Heat-sealed for tamper protection
  • Designed to keep the crunch loud and the flavours bold

Every pack is stamped with a batch code and expiry date so we can trace every single product back to its source.

Testing, Certification, Batch Check

Food safety isn’t a “nice-to-have”. It’s the baseline.
 Every production run goes through multiple checkpoints:

  • Microbiological tests to ensure safety
  • Moisture checks for long shelf life
  • Seasoning consistency checks so every bite hits right
  • Batch documentation so we can trace and verify all ingredients

We also work with certified facilities and comply with Singapore’s import requirements under the SFA.

Your snack isn’t just tasty - it’s verified safe.

Conclusion: We do things the right way - because that’s what premium means.

At HexaCrunch®, we don’t cut corners. From responsible sourcing to clean processing to airtight packaging, every step is built around one goal:

Make a snack that’s bold, exciting, and safe enough for everyday crunching.

So go on, tear open a pack.

Your tastebuds (and your mum) are in good hands.
