We dry and mill it into a 100% pure powder with a naturally sweet, maple-and-custard-like flavour — a popular plant-based way to add sweetness and a soft caramel note to recipes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy you'll love it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLucuma is naturally sweet, so it's widely used as an alternative to refined sugar in smoothies, desserts and baking.

It's a classic flavour in Peruvian ice cream and pairs beautifully with vanilla, banana and cacao.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFrequently Asked Questions\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat does lucuma taste like?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNaturally sweet with a maple, caramel and custard-like flavour.
