RE: Gingerbread Not-a-Latte: Nutrient Dense Yumminess!

That looks amazing! You have a new follower with me. I love these kinds of concoctions. In fact, every day I make my homemade "healthy" chocolate. Yes, everyday! I love it. Is that lumuca powder tasteless? I never tried it.

Hi @allforthegood! I'd love to read more about your "healthy" chocolate. Please let me know if you make it into a post! As for the lucuma powder, I read posts about it tasting similar to a sweet potato, caramel and maple, but milder. I'd have to agree, at least that it has those qualities, but not necessarily as sweet. Does that make sense?

Absolutely! I do plan on making a post about it. Sorry, I re-read your post and saw you described the flavor above already. I wasn't sure what the health benefit was for, but I looked it up. The flavor does sound good :p Maca powder tastes delicious to me and this seems like a similar flavor category. I've tried camu camu powder in my chocolate, trying for a citrus chocolate combo, but can't quite pull it off. Have you found the cacao butter is hard to melt and gets chunky as the drink cools to child suitable temps?

I've only used camu camu in smoothies. I'm not such a fan of the citrus chocolate combo. I'll combine all sorts of other flavors, but fruit & chocolate isn't much my thing. Unless we're talking chocolate dipped strawberries! Yum! But probably not as healthy.

As for the cacao butter, I use hot water and the vita-mix (high powered blender) at it's highest speed and find the mixture to stay quite creamy, even once it's completely cool! Looking forward to your post!
