Lucuma Powder – Organic Raw

Lucuma Powder is made from the dried and finely ground lucuma fruit, a golden-hued fruit native to Peru. Known for its naturally sweet, maple-like flavor with hints of caramel and sweet potato, it’s a popular ingredient in smoothies, desserts, and baked goods.

Convenient and shelf-stable, this versatile powder can also be stirred into yogurt, oatmeal, or ice cream for a rich, fruity sweetness. A traditional favorite in South America, lucuma powder is a delicious way to add natural flavor to both sweet and savory recipes.

• Lucuma is a wonderfully versatile sweetener that bursts with a maple-like flavor. It’s a great addition to healthy recipes if you want a sweet, superfood twist.
• Lucuma fruit has been revered for thousands of years in South America as a spiritual substance and culinary treat.
• Today it’s widely popular with Europeans and South Americans, who love using it in ice cream and other desserts.

A natural, low-glycemic sweetener that tastes like maple — Raw, organic, 100% pure and fresh Lucuma powder

Our raw organic Lucuma Powder is harvested in a very conscientious way. We allow our lucuma fruit to reach full maturity and fall naturally.

It is then left to ripen over several days until it peaks in flavor fully. Our fruit is peeled, pitted, dehydrated, and milled into a fine powder. We pride ourselves on the fact that our powder has only one ingredient: the whole Lucuma fruit. It’s raw, organic, 100% pure, and fresh.

It can be blended into smoothies, ice cream, pudding, pie filling, and much more. It makes for a genuinely delicious ingredient!

Despite lucuma’s sweet flavor, it has impressively low sugar content. Lucuma is also nutritionally rich, containing 14 essential trace elements, including a considerable amount of potassium, sodium, calcium, magnesium, and phosphorus. Our raw organic Lucuma Powder is an abundant source of beta-carotene, niacin (B3), and iron. One serving may help support the immune system and improve physical endurance.

A recent study by Rutgers University assessed the inflammation response effect of lucuma extract on wound healing and skin aging. Results from this experiment showed that lucuma significantly increased wound closure and promoted tissue regeneration. The report concluded lucuma might support a healthy inflammation response, anti-aging, and skin-repair properties on human skin. The results were so significant that Rutger’s University applied for a patent on lucuma extracts, particularly the oil.
