Explore our Yacón offerings, featuring Yacón powder, syrup, and flakes. Cultivated and harvested traditionally in the Peruvian Andes by small farmers, our Yacón products carry the authentic sweetness of Peru, available in bulk for your needs.
Relish the unique flavor of Yacón, also known as Peruvian ground apple, a delicacy enjoyed by the Inca 100c1ivilization and still a daily treat in modern Peru.
Our dehydrated Yacón powder and Yacón syrup from the Peruvian Andes offer a unique taste experience. The texture is similar to that of an apple and the flavor reminiscent of a refreshing blend of watermelon, apple, and cucumber. No wonder Yacón is considered to be a healthy and delicious snack.
The Yacón tubers are large, often weighing up to a kilogram. Rich in inulin, a sugar not metabolized by the human body, Yacón serves as a popular low-calorie sweetener, particularly beneficial for diabetics and those following a diet. Our range of yacón products:
