Power Super Foods Maca Powder Certified Organic 250g is a raw maca root powder made from a blend of yellow, red and black varieties grown in Peru. Its naturally sweet, malty flavour brings a caramel-like note to everyday food and drinks. Made with one certified organic, fairly traded ingredient, this powder lets you add maca to recipes without choosing a flavoured blend. The 250g pouch contains the original mixed-variety maca powder, rather than a separate red or black variety.
The roots are hand harvested and sun dried before being gently ground into a fine powder. Power Super Foods describes this maca as raw because it does not undergo high-temperature processing. Maca is a root vegetable native to the Central Andes, where it grows at high altitude. The manufacturer identifies its maca supplier as Fair Trade certified. These details give you clear information about the ingredient and its sourcing when choosing a maca powder for your pantry.
Mix the powder into a smoothie, yoghurt, cereal or juice when you want to try its sweet, malty taste. It also suits hot drinks and can be paired with cacao in a recipe. For uses beyond breakfast, add maca to pancake batter, baking or raw treats. Start with a familiar recipe and adjust the amount to suit your taste, following the current pack directions. The finely ground format makes it easy to use the same ingredient across drinks, bowls and baking.
This is a single-ingredient food powder for people who enjoy preparing their own drinks and recipes. Choose the original blend when you want yellow, red and black maca together in one pack, or use its flavour as a starting point for new kitchen combinations. Keep the powder below 25°C in a tightly sealed container, away from moisture and sunlight. As with naturally grown ingredients, the colour, aroma, texture and taste may vary seasonally. Refer to the current packaging for product information.
