Love the rich caramel flavor of this lucuma
I have long been impressed by Navitas Naturals, but their Lucuma powder is delicious. I used it in some vegan, gluten-free butterscotch cookies, a caramel apple smoothie, and some apple-spice compote and each time the results are impressive. The caramel flavor is rich and delectable, but dairy-free. The bag has enough to last for a while (especially since most recipes call for only a teaspoon or two) and I love that a little goes a long way.This is definitely worth adding to your pantry if you are a creative chef!

Healthy sweetener kids will love
Sweeeet lucuma!I love the flavor of this. I bought 2 different brands (Naita/Terrasoul) and both are identical. Lucuma has a maple/brown sugar flavor your kids will easily adapt to. Gives you your beta carotene, iron, zinc, vitamin B3, calcium, and protein without even knowing it. Smoothies, pancakes, ice ream i use it on everything. Will continue to buy it again. Terrasouls resealable bag works better. This resealable bag broke as i opened it. The top ziplock came off. I had to rebag it.

A healthy addition to any recipe
I discovered lucuma's health secrets by reading endless resources online, and let me tell you, this is a superfood that truly rises above all others. It's also a type of 'green' but fortunately doesn't have a strong aftertaste or adverse affect on the gut that could create unwanted reactions. Lucuma is good stuff and really should be incorporated into your diet. It lives up to all it's touted, and does provide endless benefits. I'm a strong advocate for smoothies, and my husband and I make a concoction of various superfoods and fruits to create what we call the 'superfood smoothie for longevity'. It's amazing how well a banana can mask unpleasant aftertastes from some of the greens and various herbal additions, but it also makes many of these very healthy plants palatable and easy to digest. Nobody enjoys forcing themselves to eat something that has a strong taste or is unpleasant. They want to enjoy their healthy superfoods, but not everything can be eaten with great pleasure like blueberries and tart cherries. Certain herbs simply must be in powder form and take on a different affect that can leave a strong aftertaste. I know of some people that love crunching on their kelp 'crackers', but I gag at the thought. I know it would be good for me, but I simply cannot stomach a fishy taste or aftertaste. So having something as valuable as lucuma arrive in a powdered form allows us to add it to a recipe that is tasty, easy to make, and refreshing. We get all the health benefits without having to pinch our noses to force it down. I highly recommend this superfood to all that enjoy being healthy and want to aid in their immune system's ability to fend for itself. It is excellent! This company produces a pure and organic version, an additional reason as to why we selected this label.

Doesn’t taste at all like lucuma
Tastes NOTHING like Lucuma. I have no idea what to make of the taste, but it’s not good. If you know what real lucuma tastes like... I’d recommend you find the frozen fruit pulp. It would be a dream if they could translate the amazing taste of lucuma into an instant powder. So far, unfortunately, no luck.

Great for raw, vegan treats!
I bought this to make a recipe I found on [...] and had no idea what it was. I had to try a little bit of the powder on it's own and found it to be rather pleasing. I don't think I'd switch to using this as a sweetener in my coffee, but it worked very well for making treats. The recipe I tried was for Nut Butter Cups (kinda like a raw, vegan Reesee's Peanut Butter Cup). Of course, after ordering it, I noticed that I could have just picked it up in Whole Foods.

Lucuma is a remarkably pleasant element unifying a smoothie flavor
Lucuma is my favorite super food to add to smoothies because of its pleasant flavor that quietly melds the taste of bitter or hot.elements into a uniformly palatable flavor. The underlying nutritional benefits can't be denied. This brand has quality.

Lucuma Powder
I learned that this Lucuma is good to use by diabetics. I was in border with diabetes and have tried this Lucuma for about 2 months. So far, it didn't spike my blood sugar. I am still studying this powder and like the package from this company.

Not so great!
This is my first Amazon review and I must say this has no sweet taste at all. I started out with a 1 1/2 tsp. in my tea to replace honey, and was not happy. To me what others describe as caramel flavor was more like some vegetable root...raw, not roasted.

Packaging
I’m very excited to use this product but was bummed when it came as packaging was completely crunched and worn out, although it was unopened. Maybe I’m weird but I like new things to look new.

Very Disappointing!😢
Very powdery and bland. Not even a hint of sweetness or any flavor whatsoever. Does not dissolve. Thick paste at bottom of drink.

楽しみ!
ネットニュースで、目にして、試しに、購入! チアシード、ココナッツオイルの効果は、自身、実証出来た。ルクマにも、期待したいです。星は、効果が出たら、付けますね! のっちー
