Naturay's Lucuma is sourced from the Peruvian department of Haunuco. When mature fruit falls from the lucuma tree it isn’t ripe, and the pulp is too hard to eat. The fruit must be stored under hay to break down the bitterness, while white latex softens. However, even when fully ripe the flesh remains relatively firm. Ripe fruit is then thoroughly washed and cut into small segments which are fully dehydrated, with the Lucuma’s temperature reaching no higher than 45C°, ensuring its nutrients are not denatured. It’s then carefully milled into a fine powder, which can be stored for two years, retaining its nutty, caramel flavor. Naturay's Lucuma powder is rigorously tested for microbial activity, guaranteeing a natural product with exceptional purity.
