Croquettes are bite-size bites with a soft center and a crispy coating. The filling can vary, but you’ll commonly see:

• Meat or seafood: ham, chicken, salmon, or fish mixed into a smooth base.
• Vegetarian: mashed potato, cheese, or vegetables inside a breaded shell.
• Dessert-style items: some bakery snacks use “croquette” in the name for cake-like treats.

They’re typically breaded and cooked until golden. On our site, you’ll find options in Frozen and Deli, plus sweet snacks in Snacks or seasonal bakery sections. Product recipes vary, so it’s a good idea to check the ingredient list and allergen information to make sure a specific item fits your needs.

Cooking methods can differ by brand, so use the package directions as your primary guide. In general, you can try:

• Oven: Preheat, place croquettes on a lined tray in a single layer, and bake until heated through and crisp, turning once for even browning.
• Air fryer: Arrange in one layer and cook until hot and crunchy; consider shaking or flipping midway.
• Pan-fry: Add a light layer of oil and fry over medium heat, turning for an even crust.

Avoid overcrowding so they crisp up better, and let them rest briefly before serving. Appliance performance varies, so times may differ. Checking doneness and texture as you go can help you get the result you like.

Look at the product name and description—they usually highlight the filling. You’ll commonly see:

• Vegetarian: potato croquettes, cheese-filled croquettes, or vegetable blends.
• Seafood: salmon croquettes or fish croquettes with a crispy coating.

For vegetarian choices, try browsing Frozen and Deli, and use the Dietary & Lifestyle Shop filters to narrow by preferences. For seafood, check Frozen or Deli as well. Since recipes vary, review the ingredient list and allergen statements to confirm whether an item includes dairy, eggs, shellfish, or gluten. Availability can differ by location, and pickup or delivery options may be offered at checkout.

You can browse croquettes across a few departments online:

• Frozen: breaded croquettes you can heat at home.
• Deli: ready-to-heat or chilled bites for quick serving.
• International Food: items labeled “croquetas” and other global styles.
• Snacks/Cookies & Chips or seasonal bakery: dessert-style treats that use “croquette” in the name.

Use search filters to refine by category or dietary needs. Product selection varies by area, and you can choose pickup or delivery where available during checkout. If you’re shopping in-store, these items are typically found in the freezer cases or deli section; availability may vary by store, so checking online first can save you a trip.

“Croquette” can refer to different styles based on filling and preparation. You’ll see variations such as:

• Base: some use mashed potato; others have a smooth, creamy base with meat or seafood.
• Filling focus: names like “ham,” “salmon,” or “potato” highlight what’s inside.
• Shape: logs, balls, or patties—size and form can differ by recipe.
• Labeling: you may also see “croquetas” on internationally inspired items, and some sweet snacks use “croquette” in the product name.

When choosing, skim the product description and ingredients to match your taste and dietary preferences. If you’re exploring new styles, starting with a small pack can help you figure out what you like.
