More About This Product
What Makes BeLeaf's Breaded Shrimp Different
Plant-based shrimp alternatives are generally built on konjac- or pea-protein gels that can be shaped and breaded to mimic shrimp's bite. BeLeaf's breaded shrimp uses a konjac powder and pea protein base (Konjac Powder, Potato Extract, Cassava Starch, Pea Protein, DHA Algal Oil) with a seaweed-based vegan seasoning for ocean flavor, coated in a wheat-flour breading — a soy-free formulation that still delivers the crispy, golden exterior foodservice operators expect from a fried shrimp item.
Per 4 pieces (100g) serving: 161 calories, 4g protein, 7g fat, 494mg sodium. Contains wheat/gluten (wheat flour breading). Free from soy. Also free from dairy, egg, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, and peanuts. No cholesterol, no added MSG.
Foodservice Specs & Ordering
BeLeaf breaded shrimp (item V048) ships in a 2-count case at 5 lbs per case (UPC 850247008082). Additional distributor code: WebstaurantStore 872BEL008082.
BeLeaf breaded shrimp can be ordered two ways, depending on volume:
- Truck delivery via broadline distributors — BeLeaf is integrated into the Dot Foods redistribution network (item #781940), so restaurants working with Sysco, US Foods, PFG, or a regional distributor can add this SKU to a standard weekly order by referencing the Dot item number.
- US Foods Direct (online, FedEx-shipped) — also available through US Foods Direct, an online ordering platform shipped via FedEx with no volume minimum, for independent operators or first-time buyers.
Product is kept frozen and cooked directly from frozen — no thaw step is needed before frying.
Cooking & Menu Applications
BeLeaf breaded shrimp cooks straight from frozen: preheat oil to 375°F (190°C) and fry for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown and crispy, then drain well before serving — no thaw time needed, which keeps ticket times down during service.
- Appetizers — fried shrimp baskets or platters with dipping sauce
- Salads — crispy shrimp topping for seafood-style salads
- Entrées — a center-of-plate option alongside rice, noodles, or vegetables
- Po'boys & sandwiches — breaded shrimp sandwiches and wraps
Adding a plant-based breaded shrimp to a menu extends a fried-seafood program to vegan, vegetarian, and shellfish-allergic diners using the same fryer and cook time as traditional breaded shrimp.
What is plant-based breaded shrimp made from?
BeLeaf's Plant-Based Breaded Shrimp is made from konjac powder, potato extract, cassava starch, and pea protein with DHA algal oil and a seaweed-based vegan seasoning, coated in a wheat flour breading.

Through Dot Foods broadline distributors (item #781940) including Sysco, US Foods, and PFG, through WebstaurantStore (872BEL008082), or through US Foods Direct — an online platform shipped via FedEx with no volume minimum.

How do you cook plant-based breaded shrimp?

What's the best plant-based shrimp for a foodservice menu?
For fryer-driven appetizer and entrée menus, a frozen, cook-from-frozen breaded option like BeLeaf's works well since it needs no thaw step and crisps up in 2-3 minutes, fitting directly into an existing fried-seafood workflow.
