We mill the dried root into a 100% pure powder with a deep, earthy, slightly malty flavour and no additives or fillers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy you'll love it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike all maca, black maca is a source of plant protein and fibre with natural carbohydrates, and it has long been a staple food in traditional Andean diets. Its robust, malty taste stands up especially well to cacao and coffee, making it a popular addition to smoothies and warm drinks.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to use Black Maca Powder\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStart with around 1 teaspoon (5g) per day and build up to 1–2 teaspoons to suit your taste. Blend into smoothies and shakes, stir into porridge or coffee, or mix into energy balls and baking. Its bold flavour pairs particularly well with cacao, banana and dates.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow is black maca different from yellow maca?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBlack maca is the darkest, less common variety of maca root, with a stronger, more robust earthy-malty flavour. Our standard maca is the milder yellow variety.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does black maca taste like?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeep, earthy and malty — bolder than yellow maca. It works best with cacao, coffee, banana and oats.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow much should I use per day?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA typical serving is 1–2 teaspoons (around 5–10g). If you're new to maca, start with 1 teaspoon and increase gradually.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I bake or cook with it?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes. It holds up well to heat, so you can add it to bakes, energy bars and warm drinks without losing its malty flavour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eIs it vegan and gluten-free?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYes, it's 100% black maca root, suitable for vegans and vegetarians, with no gluten ingredients. It is packed in an environment that also handles gluten, nuts and other allergens, so it is not suitable for those with severe allergies.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIngredients:\u003c\/strong\u003e100% Organic Black Maca Powder\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAllergen information: Packed in an environment that handles nuts, peanuts, sesame, mustard, celery, soya and products containing gluten.
