The lucuma fruit is a Peruvian favourite, with a unique caramel flavour to the bright orange flesh. Grown in orchards across the mountainous regions of South America, the pulp of the ripe fruit is dried into a sweet ochre powder. Can be added to cakes, cookies, raw chocolate recipes and smoothies. Or try mixing it into home-made ice cream to enjoy lucuma the way Peruvians do. The lucuma fruit is a Peruvian favourite, with a unique caramel flavour to the bright orange flesh.
