We’re proud to offer Duck Winglets and Boneless Duck Breast from Maple Leaf Farms. There are many different breeds of duck and they don’t all yield the same product. Maple Leaf Farms raises White Pekin ducks, which have a tender, mild flavor that is not as “gamey” as other types of duck marketed in the United States — such as Muscovy, Moulard or Mallard. Maple Leaf Farms duck breasts feature 30% less fat and more meat than competitors.
