Everything at a glance Organic lucuma powder 1 kg
KoRo and dried fruits – true love since day one. This deep love of ours embraces, of course, also the pulverised versions of our favourite dried fruits, and, as we still can't have enough of them, we are now adding a new fruit powder, perhaps still quite unknown here and there, to our KoRo family: lucuma. Have you ever heard this name? Incomparably fruity-sweet, lucuma powder will take your smoothies to the next level!
Lucuma – the gold of the Inca
Native of the Andes of South America, lucuma was cultivated by the Incas of Peru already 2000 years ago, and used as medicine and food. Today, the golden subtropical fruit stands out mainly because of its delicious yellow pulp, which is reminiscent of mango, and its wonderful smell!
But this fruit can do much more than just look beautiful and smell good: lucuma's unique sweet taste is reminiscent of maple syrup and caramel. Incredible, right? Unfortunately, fresh lucuma is not to be found in Europe – but cheer up! As we wanted you to fall in love with this exotic fruit as much as we have, we select the best specimens, and dry and pulverise them just for you. Tropical feeling guaranteed!
Recipes with lucuma
Now you're probably asking yourself, what am I supposed to do with this magical lucuma powder? Well, we are happy to give you a few ideas: thanks to its own aromatic sweetness, lucuma powder can be ideally used as a flavouring ingredient in beverages and yoghurts! Just a spoon of lucuma, and your every shake, smoothie and creamy dessert, will turn into a unique, fruity taste experience! And what about a refreshing lucuma ice cream? With our fruit powder you can easily make lucuma ice cream yourself. And we are just warming up: lucuma lattes, lucuma mousses, and even delicious lucuma cheesecakes are waiting for you to create them. As you can see, there are no limits to your creativity - just give it a try. You will be amazed at the versatility of our new fruit powder!
High-fibre fruit powder
Already for the Inca, the lucuma was a real power fruit. Today, one of the properties for which it is best known, is its high fibre content – a whopping 28 grams of well-digestible fibre per 100! Moreover, our lucuma powder is a good source of iron and potassium.
So, what are you waiting for? Take your food game to the next level with this beautiful and nutrient-rich lucuma powder. And, if you are looking for more dried fruit inspiration, take a look at our selection: from acai and maca powder to spirulina and baobab, the choice will make your head spin. Find your favourite!
