Production: Lucuma is an evergreen tree that is native to the Andean valleys and commonly grown in Peru, Ecuador, and Chile. The large round fruit turns yellow when it is mature and is usually harvested annually between November and April.
Qualities: The dried, powdered flesh of the Lucuma fruit is said to help control blood sugar levels, and is rich in vitamins and minerals. It contains high levels of iron and helps with hemoglobin production.
