About Product
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.

- Minerals: Phosphorus
- Vitamins: Vitamin C, Thiamin, Riboflavin, Beta carotene
This product is 100% natural and minimally processed: Taste, smell, texture, and color vary from batch to batch.
