Whole Cooked King Crab

Whole Cooked Cornish King Crab

Cornish King crabs are large, spiky crustaceans that are very common around Cornwall’s coast. They grow up to 80cm in claw span. The claws are full of delicious moist, white meat. All most all these crabs caught in Cornwall are exported overseas where they are highly prized. 

These crabs were previously called Spider Crabs. To increase the popularity, they have been rebranded as Cornish King Crab by The Cornish Fish Producers Organisation (CFPO).
