Squash the myths

Gem squash is small and round – about the size of a large grapefruit. Its deep green skin sets it apart from other squashes. But this wonder of the earth is often overlooked, in favour of its more famous cousins the butternut and pumpkin.

Try our Wildeklawer gem squash for taste and squash this myth! You’ll discover that its orange flesh actually has a slightly sweeter flavour than other squashes.


Gem squashes contain potassium which promotes healthy blood pressure, while Vitamin B1 helps to convert blood sugar to energy. They are also rich in Vitamin C which promotes wound healing, healthy teeth and gums as well as helps control blood cholesterol.

Plus this versatile wonder can be turned into containers and utensils because of their hard shells.
