Convenience stores and supermarket hot cases are transforming. Today’s customers expect more than microwaved burritos and heat-lamp pizza. They want bold, satisfying, hand-helds — and they want them fast.

Catalina croquettes are made to be deep-fried. That’s how you get the golden crust, creamy center, and full flavor they’re known for. Air frying might work for other frozen snacks, but it doesn’t do our products justice.

Ever bitten into a croquette and wondered where these crispy little bundles of joy came from? These golden-fried treats have quite the story to tell!

Whether you’re building a passed hors d’oeuvre menu or rounding out buffet stations, Latin-inspired small bites offer bold flavor, craveable texture, and excellent hold times — making them a smart (and profitable) choice for high-volume events.
