Terrasoul Superfoods Organic Lucuma Powder, 16 Oz - Sugar Substitute

I love this! I’ve tasted Lucuma ice cream in Peru a long time ago. We do not get this fruit in the Chicago area, so I was excited to find this. I add it to my smoothies and I love that it adds sweetness without added sugars or other substitutes, many which are unhealthy. For example, I can use it in place of banana to sweeten my smoothies with a flavor other than the banana flavor, and for a variety in health benefits/nutrients. It has a pleasant taste without being overpowering. It mixes well, and I’m pleased with the quality of the product. I cannot compare it to the real fruit taste, as it’s been SO long, nor could I compare it with any other brand because I have not tried any other. I am happy with my purchase, worth what I paid for it, and I would be happy to buy it again.

This stuff is surprisingly good. It has a delicata caramel/butterscotch kind of flavor. It mixes in smoothies and youghurt very well. I am going to try Lucuma/Mango Ice Cream next. As a chef, I've seen a lot of disappointed reviews but those are people trying to use this as sugar/sweetner substitute. It is clearly not that. It is certainly not sweet enough on its own. It has a sweetness but is not "sugar sweet. You'll be a lot happier if you use this as a food, supplement or flavoring additive. This should go very well, with peach, mango, oranges, sweet potatos/yams, pinapples and bananas. You can also add this to baked pound and loaf cakes. Packaging is also good - seals up tight but keep the powder out of the sealing strip. It is very fine and can cause trouble on the strip. I am definitely keeping this stuff around

Over all this is a very good product, it just doesn't dissolve in coffee quickly. The health benefits compensate for that issue as it is better for me than sugar. I enjoy the taste and flavor it brings to my coffee.

This product is not your common sugar replacement. It has a distinctive taste and pleasant smell but it is a superior anti-oxidant beyond doubt. I suspect it is also Qi raising and cooling, judging from the effects. I add one tea spoon a day to my mushroom coffee, and 1 bag has 90 servings. My hayfever symptoms have significantly diminished since I began using this product. I don't know if that is attributed directly to this product, but I haven't changed anything else in my diet. I have tried various sugar substitutes that did not help me with any health benefits and feel blessed that I have found this product.

I have been consistently ordering this product for the past few months and have had no complaints until now. Usually the lucuma powder is delicious but in my last order of two bags, one was fine and the other one contained an unknown product that was NOT lucuma. The color was the same (maybe a little darker) but when I made a lucuma shake with it, the taste was horrible. Not Lucuma. I think it may be Maca or something else but not Lucuma at all. I could not return the product to Amazon so I called Terrasoul Superfoods and opened a ticket with them. They could not find the batch number since is sold by Amazon and not them directly but they said they were going to check with the distribution team. I am now afraid to order more Lucuma Powder from Amazon. Can you please tell me if this problem has been fixed?

In Peru some call it Gold of the Incas. I don’t consider this a sweetener, you can replace sweeteners with it but it’s a good tasty companion to sweeteners. I put this in my whipped coffee, I mix it with instant coffee, stevia, monk fruit, fat free Greek yogurt, Erythritol, instant coffee and cinnamon. I whip it together for a couple of minutes before I add hot water and almond vanilla milk. That Liz tastes amazing. I also mix it with plain yogurt or vanilla ice cream to make delicious lucuma flavored desserts. That’s not all, this stuff is so nutritious and considered a super food with lots of antioxidants. It also contains as much calcium as a glass of milk per serving, calcium as a glass of cow’s milk, beta-carotene an anti-carcinogen, vitamin C, zinc to help your immune system, iron, Niacin (vitamin B3) that helps reduce bad cholesterol and fiber for your gut. It has a unique taste, it is the most popular ice cream flavor in Peru. I like this manufacturer I buy a lot of their products, and no I don’t get paid by them or get a commission, I just enjoy their products and want to thank them for bringing this Peruvian wonder to us.

I've had lucuma shakes before and I love them. This one doesn't taste the way I imagined it would.

Lucuma otherwise referred to as Egg Fruit is amazing and so different that what you usually taste here in America. Give it a try :) your health will love you. You will also see that this company makes a great quality product.
