How do the prices compare?

Using the displayed pack prices and stated weights, deveined whole lobe is £7.16 less per 100g. This is a purchase-price comparison before delivery. It does not include accompaniments, energy, labour, cooking loss or unused product. Those factors differ by menu and can change the cost of a finished portion.

Per-100g figures for approximate weights are planning figures, not a guaranteed invoice calculation. Prices and availability can change after the dated snapshot, so the product page should remain the checkout source.

How does preparation change the choice?

FoieGood Foie Gras Escalopes 4×30g

Cook the four 30g portions following the current pack directions. Keep frozen and use safe defrosting and cooking handling exactly as directed on the pack.

Frozen Deveined Foie Gras Whole Lobe ≈500g

Portion and cook, or prepare as a terrine or torchon, following the pack and recipe. Keep frozen and follow the supplied pack for defrosting, cooking, storage and use-by instructions.

Where cooking is required, use a suitable recipe and the current pack's food-safety directions. A ready-to-slice product should not be substituted into a method written for a frozen cooking product, and a frozen cooking product should never be served as though it were a prepared chilled item.

Which format suits the occasion?

The escalopes suit a four-plate service with a fixed 30g product portion. The lobe suits a larger menu or a recipe that needs a whole piece. Compare the amount you will actually cook: buying the lower unit-cost lobe is not economical if the larger format does not fit the plan.

For broader category context, use the foie gras guide. It explains the practical distinction between whole lobe, bloc, terrine, mi-cuit and portioned cooking formats before you choose a specific pack.

How should you decide?

• Start with service style: decide whether the dish will be served cold and sliced or cooked to order.
• Match the quantity: compare the stated pack weight with the number and size of portions you intend to serve.
• Price on the same basis: use the dated per-100g figures, then account for delivery and any recipe-specific costs.
• Plan storage: make sure frozen, chilled or after-opening requirements fit the event and available storage.

Verdict

Choose FoieGood Foie Gras Escalopes 4×30g when you need four defined 30g portions with little cutting. Choose Frozen Deveined Foie Gras Whole Lobe ≈500g when you need more total product, a lower displayed unit cost and several possible preparations. The correct choice follows the intended dish, quantity and preparation route. The dated prices help compare the purchase, but they do not create a universal winner across two different formats.
