What Are Baby Gems (Round Courgettes)?

Baby Gems are small, rounded forms of courgette, part of the summer squash group within Cucurbita pepo. Unlike long baby courgettes, these compact fruits have a rounded to oval form and smooth green skin with natural variation in colour.


They are used by professional kitchens where individual portions and distinctive vegetable shapes matter. The intact fruit can be roasted, hollowed for stuffing, halved or sliced. The image supplied shows six fruits in a clear wrapped retail punnet; exact piece count may vary by grading and pack weight.

Taste & texture

Mild Flavour. Tender Flesh.

Delicate and mildly sweet with fresh, subtle vegetal notes that pair well with herbs, garlic, olive oil and seasoned fillings.


Firm while fresh and tender when cooked; the rounded shape is particularly effective for individual stuffed portions.

From preparation to plate

One vegetable. Plenty of possibilities.

Six versatile ways to prepare Baby Gems in professional kitchens.

Rinse before use. Roast or grill whole or halved, or hollow appropriately sized fruit for stuffing. Cooking times depend on individual size.

Stuffing


01

Hollow appropriately sized round courgettes and fill with vegetables, grains, herbs or cheese.

02

Roasting

Roast whole or halved with olive oil and herbs until the centre is tender.

03

Grilling

Cut into thick rounds or halves and grill to create lightly charred edges.

04

Sautéing

Slice and sauté with garlic, butter or oil for quick vegetable accompaniments.

05

Baking

Bake filled or halved Baby Gems as individual vegetable portions.

06

Mixed Baby Vegetables

Use alongside baby carrots, Patty Pan squash and other vegetables for variety in shape and colour.
