Lucuma powder is an all-natural sweetener made from a superfood, the lucuma fruit. Many cultures in the Andean regions of Chile, Peru, and Ecuador have used it extensively for centuries, not just for its pleasant taste, but also for its many health benefits.


This powdered sweetener is made entirely from the dried starchy flesh of the fruit, which means it loses none of lucuma's varied nutrients. It ranks very low on the glycemic index, making it a healthy way to sweeten your coffee, tea and desserts without significantly impacting your blood sugar.



Lucuma powder is one of the MOST delicious sugar alternatives today

As a fruit, lucuma has been described as having the taste of sweet potatoes, maple syrup, caramel, butterscotch, and even chocolate. When dried and powdered, it takes on a gentle blend of flavors reminiscent of ripe apricots and goji berries. Unlike other sugar alternatives, its flavor is consistent and has no unpleasant aftertaste.

Lucuma powder has a very fine texture – almost like flour – and dissolves easily in liquids. It's perfect for beverages like coffee and tea, smoothies and other blended drinks. Its subtle sweetness works well with desserts and recipes that call for a light, delicate taste.

Lucuma powder is made from a nutrient-dense superfood

The ancient people of Peru recognized lucuma as a symbol of longevity and fertility. It is so potent that even today, it's called the “gold of the Incas."

Lucuma powder is rich in antioxidants

It's a low-GI sweetener

It's packed with healthy carbs

It's filled with vitamins and minerals

It is versatile

The lucuma fruit is known to contain a diverse array of antioxidants -- especially beta-carotene, -- that support your overall health and well-being.**

Despite its sweetness, lucuma powder scores just 25 on the glycemic index.

The carbohydrates in lucuma are absorbed slowly by your body, so they don't cause spikes in your blood sugar levels. Lucuma is one of the best whole food sources of carbohydrates that your body uses for energy.

Besides beta-carotene, lucuma also provides vitamin B3. It delivers 14 trace elements, including magnesium, sodium, phosphorus, and potassium, and it has as much calcium as cow's milk, gram per gram.

The texture and unique flavor of lucuma powder suits different recipes well. It can be used as a sweetener for your favorite treats. You can also use it to make lucuma ice cream that's quickly becoming very popular in the U.S. today.

Lucuma powder turns desserts into guilt-free pleasure

Sugar alternatives may be sweet, but not all of them can be used for delectable, healthy desserts. Here's a recipe for healthy toffee butter cups, just one of many treats where lucuma powder shines:
