Lucuma is a sweet fruit native to Peru that has been used for centuries in cuisine and medicine. It is often referred to as the “Gold of the Incas.”

The lucuma fruit has been an essential part of Peruvian culture and is used for various purposes, including food, tonics, and ceremonies.

The Inca believed the lucuma fruit to have several positive qualities, and its popularity spread throughout the continent.

The fruit has a unique flavor that is often described as a mix of maple and sweet potato. Lucuma powder is made from dried and ground lucuma fruit.

It has been used in South American countries for centuries but has become increasingly popular in recent years as a health food because of its highly nourishing content.

It is often used in smoothies, desserts, and other recipes.

Today, the lucuma fruit is still eaten fresh, but it is mainly processed into a powder form. Its popularity continues to grow as more people recognize lucuma powder as a better quality way to bring some sweetness into your life.
