Product information "Agave Syrup Organic"

Premium agave syrup in raw food quality

What is agave?

The agave is a cactus-like plant from Mexico. Agave syrup is a delicious sweetener obtained from the sap inside the agave plant, which is at least eight years old.

Traditionally, Mexicans collected the sweet sap ("aguamiel") from various agaves to make sweeteners and special drinks for celebrations.

Why buy agave syrup?

Agave syrup is a vegan alternative to honey and has a pleasant flavour, like a mixture of honey and maple syrup. It can be used as a versatile sweetener.

Only very gently processed agave syrup like ours has a low glycaemic index and is only absorbed slowly into the bloodstream. It is therefore particularly recommended for people with sugar sensitivities.

What makes our agave syrup special?

Most conventional agave syrups, often also those from organic cultivation, are made from 3-6 different types of agave and have been heated and pasteurised, as the agave juice spoils quickly after it has been extracted The healthier polysaccharides (mainly in the form of inulin) are converted into simple sugars. They have thus lost a large proportion of their nutrients!

Our agave syrup is obtained exclusively from the Salmiana agave, is processed very gently and at low temperatures and is therefore of the best quality available on the market.

No pesticides or other agrochemicals are used in cultivation. The thick juice is produced in special vacuum containers in which the water it contains is vaporised at very low temperatures.

The valuable vitamins, minerals and enzymes are thus largely preserved and made available to our bodies. Because our agave syrup is 100% natural, it has a stronger flavour and a darker colour than commercially available thick juices.

How to use it in your daily diet?

Agave syrup is characterised by a high, neutral sweetening power. It enhances the flavour and is easily soluble in hot and cold food and drinks.

It is ideal for baked goods and, due to its low tendency to crystallise, for making jams and jellies.

Ich liebe ihn!

Ich liebe Agavendicksaft und bin entzückt, dass ich wieder dunklen Agavendicksaft gefunden habe, denn das weist darauf hin, dass er nicht stark verarbeitet wird und die wertvollen Nährstoffe enthält. Und dass es Rohkostqualität ist, ist eine weitere Bestätigung für hochwertige Qualität.

Camu Camu powder organic

Camu camu powder (100% natural) with 15% vitamin C content The camu camu fruit has the highest documented natural vitamin C content of any food on earth. Compared to oranges, camu camu provides 30-60 times more vitamin C, 10 times more iron, 3 times more niacin, twice as much riboflavin and 50% more phosphorus! Camu camu contains 2-3g of vitamin C per 100g of fresh fruit and around 10-12g per 100g of dried powder. That doesn't seem like much compared to synthetic vitamin C supplements, but the vitamin C in camu camu is a naturally occurring, highly bioavailable form and works synergistically in the body for maximum benefit. Why Consume Camu Camu Powder? We have found camu camu to energize and uplift and improve mood. It helps us stay active and in a good mood throughout the day. A pretty amazing effect for such a small berry. We all know about the great health value of vitamin C, and since there is camu camu, we can dispense with artificial, synthetic forms entirely. For people like us, who are always on the lookout for what nature has to offer, this is a blessing. The berry is 100% natural and a powerful, highly concentrated food. Due to its natural origin and in combination with other vitamins, minerals, bioflavonoids and amino acids, the vitamin C contained in camu camu is fully absorbed by the body, which is not the case with synthetic vitamin C. What makes our camu camu powder special? SamaraNatura Camu Camu (scientific name: Myrciaria dubia) grows wild in the Peruvian Amazon. The berries are harvested directly into boats equipped with freezing systems. The boats travel the waterways of the Amazon where the fruit is picked at full maturity and flash frozen. At a processing plant, the fruit is then thawed, peeled, liquefied and spray dried. The resulting powder is pale pink to yellow-brown and has powerful ingredients. We receive our camu camu in the form of a pure, unadulterated powder with an orange-light brown colour. It takes about 15kg of berries to make 1kg of powder, which contains 10-12% vitamin C by weight. Therefore, it takes very little to stock up on an effective dose of antioxidants. Camu camu powder: Often different vitamin C content We would like to point out that the vitamin C content of camu camu powder varies greatly. For example, there is also camu camu with only 5-6% vitamin C. When comparing, pay attention to the vitamin C content, because the lower the product, the cheaper it should be. Influence on sustainable development of the Amazon basin We also like that the growing popularity of Camu Camu is contributing to the sustainable development of the Amazon Basin and helping locals maintain their traditional lifestyle. How to use camu camu powder? Like other superfoods, camu camu is very easy to use. Simply mix the powder into your smoothie in the morning or an afternoon pick-me-up drink. Camu camu has a fairly acidic taste, although it does not have an acidifying effect on the body and is easier on the stomach than synthetic ascorbic acid. It therefore tastes best when mixed with other ingredients. Add about 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon (2-3 g) to juices, smoothies, ice cream, raw desserts, or simply to your drinking water. It's a great way to balance out the sweetness in fruit smoothies and desserts. Tip: Camunade is a refreshing drink that gives you a good vitamin C boost. Simply sprinkle a teaspoon of camu camu into a glass of cold water (sparkling or still), add a squeeze of lime juice and some sweetener (e.g. agave or yacon syrup) and shake briefly. You can increase the daily amount if necessary (spread the intake over the day), but diarrhea symptoms indicate that you are taking too much camu camu.

Yellow Maca powder Organic

Maca - Ancient Superfood from the Andes (100% natural) The root vegetable has been a staple food of the indigenous peoples of the Andes for thousands of years and is an excellent source of energy and stamina.Its content of bioavailable protein is about 11% in the dried root.For legal reasons (Swiss Food Ordinance), as a food retailer we are not allowed to make any statements about possible effects. Do your own research on Maca on the Internet. Among others, we find the site of Dr. Schweikart very informative. The different varieties are also described there. Currently, our assortment includes, in addition to the yellow Maca described here, also the red and black Maca, of course also in organic and raw food quality. In addition, we carry Bio Maca Max, a more digestible variety, in which the starch contained in the Maca powder is converted by heating, so that it is easier to digest and absorb. Why we love Maca Maca increases our energy levels. Maca makes us feel full of energy, grounded and cheerful.Plus, Maca has a pleasant, malty flavor and can be used in many different ways. SamaraNatura Maca Powder yellow Our pure, yellow, Maca powder is made from 100% natural Maca roots from controlled organic cultivation, produced under strict production standards and quality controls. They all come from altitudes above 4000 meters above sea level in the Junín region of Peru.Our suppliers work together with small farmers. In doing so, they create jobs for the regional population and advise the small entrepreneurs by providing training and financial support. This is a means of raising the standard of living of small farmers while increasing their crop yields. How to use Maca Powder Maca has a unique flavor and can be added to many different dishes. Some people find the taste of maca powder somewhat reminiscent of caramel with an upbeat note. Maca powder can be stirred into rice, nut or hemp milk, for example, or simply mixed into muesli. Mix Maca powder with water, milk of your choice or add it to juice, smoothie, muesli or raw desserts. Maca is also a good binder for soups and therefore a delicious addition to them. We especially like maca with oatmeal and as an ingredient in our raw chocolate recipes.It is advisable to start with a small amount of ½ tsp per day and increase up to 1-2 tbsp per day. Unlike soy products, Mexican yam and flaxseed, maca does not contain hormones.Note: A common misconception about superfoods and herbs is that there is a standard usage amount. In general, the usual recommended daily intake for most superfoods, like maca, is between 1 tsp and 3 tbsp per day, divided into two or three doses. It is best to start with 1 tsp per day and adjust the amount to your personal needs.

Suma Powder

Suma - Brazilian ginseng(Pfaffia paniculata) | 100% natural Suma root is also known as "Brazilian ginseng" due to its adaptogenic properties. However, it does not belong to the ginseng family, but to the foxtail family. Why consume suma? Suma contains a range of nutrients, including 19 amino acids, vitamins A, B1, B2, E, K, pantothenic acid, iron, silicon, magnesium, zinc and antioxidant saponins. Its relatively high content of germanium, a powerful antioxidant that can scavenge free radicals and highly reactive oxygen compounds at the cellular level, is important. Antioxidants are important for cell maintenance and function. Suma is known to improve the oxygen supply and energy efficiency of cells and to promote performance and endurance. For example, Russian Olympic athletes take suma to build muscle and increase their stamina without the negative effects of steroids. Known in Brazil as "para tudo" (for everything), suma has been used by the inhabitants of the Amazon for hundreds of years and is traditionally used to boost sexual vigour and raise the body's energy levels. Recommendations for use You can mix suma powder into smoothies, fruit juices and milk drinks or use it as an ingredient in muesli, homemade chocolate and other dishes. We recommend starting with half a teaspoon and increasing to a level teaspoon per day after a week. Due to its special adaptogenic properties, Suma should only be taken when needed and not over a longer period of time. We recommend a maximum of 1 month and then a break of at least 1 month. Note: In case of medical treatment, pregnancy or uncertainty, consult a specialist about the use of this product.

Lucuma Powder Organic

Organic lucuma powder - heavenly delicious fruit powder What is lucuma powder? Lucuma (Pouteria lucuma), the "sweet gold of the Incas", is a subtropical, exotic fruit from South America that has long been revered by the ancient Andean culture. Why buy lucuma powder? Healthy fruit sweetness with a low glycaemic index Particularly rich in beta-carotene, iron, vitamin B1 and B2 Versatile ingredient for cakes, desserts and ice creams Ever since we got to know Lucuma powder, it has been one of our favourite foods. The healthy fruit sweetness with a low glycaemic index is particularly rich in beta-carotene, iron, vitamin B1 and B2. Its biscuit-like sweetness makes it a favourite in (raw) cakes, desserts and chocolates. We like to add it to our creams and ice creams and as a gourmet ingredient to all sweets - the wonderful flavour and biscuit-like sweetness of lucuma powder enhances every dessert. In Peru, the yellowish-orange fruit is the most popular flavour in ice cream. What makes our lucuma powder special? Free from pesticides and agrochemicals Raw food quality Gentle processing Best flavour Lucuma from SamaraNatura is free from pesticides and agrochemicals. The lucuma pulp is dried in a solar drying plant at low temperatures in accordance with raw food quality standards, then gently ground and sieved. Although lucuma also grows in other tropical regions, the flavour of the fruit that grows in the Peruvian highlands is rated even better. This is where our lucuma powder comes from. The beautiful, dark yellow powder has a flavour reminiscent of maple syrup and cashews. Tips for use Lucuma powder is an extremely versatile and tasty ingredient that works well in ice creams, baby food, yoghurts, cakes, chocolate and desserts and can be used for lucuma mousse, pudding or parfait. It is ideal as a sweet flour for pies, cakes and pastries and tastes delicious in smoothies, nut milks and other drinks. The powder produces a rich, creamy consistency and transforms your raw food creations into a heavenly gourmet treat! We mostly use it in sweet dishes, but we have been told that it also tastes great in savoury dishes. Just like maca, lucuma helps to combine and emulsify fats and oils with sugar and polysaccharides. For example, lucuma is ideal as an ingredient for a dish or drink with cocoa nibs (50% fat) and yacon root syrup (polysaccharides). It combines cocoa and yacon in flavour and consistency.

Carob powder organic

Carob powder - from the pods of the carob tree Carob is a legume that grows on the carob tree, a wild, evergreen tree native to the Mediterranean, and has been used as a sweetener and nutritious natural snack for thousands of years. Carob was well known to the ancient Greeks, who spread the seeds of this plant in Greece and Italy. Why consume carob powder? People who don't know much about carob think it's a healthy version of (high-sugar, high-fat) chocolate, but it's so much more. We like to mix carob with raw cocoa for a sweet and healthy treat, because cocoa has a lot of magnesium and compared to cocoa, carob contains three times as much calcium, a third less calories and only 1% fat. Carob is naturally sweet and fewer sweeteners are needed when it is used in recipes. It has a low glycaemic index, is low in fat and exceptionally nutritious, rich in calcium, protein and fibre. What makes our carob powder special? Our organic carob powder from Spain is gently heated and ground for drying in order to preserve its flavour, colour and nutrients. Due to the drying process at well over 42° C, it is no longer raw food. Due to the different requirements, we offer carob powder in 2 different sizes: 250g and 500g. These can be selected at the top right under "Weight variants". Using carob in everyday life and for great recipes Use carob powder to sweeten dishes, in desserts, smoothies, sprinkled on your muesli, as an ingredient in raw chocolate and cakes as well as in quick and nutritious snacks.

Mesquite powder organic

Mesquite powder - sweetener from the desert Mesquite was a traditional staple food of the indigenous people of the arid regions of North and South America. Today, mesquite powder is being rediscovered as a nutritious and tasty food and used all over the world. Mesquite has the sweet, wild taste of the desert with a hint of caramel and is versatile. Mesquite has a protein content of approx. 14% and is rich in calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc and the amino acid lysine, which is rarely found in a grain-heavy diet. Mesquite is 25% fiber and has a low glycemic index. Mesquite flour is naturally gluten-free. Why We Love Mesquite Powder Mesquite has a sweet, malty taste that is similar to carob, but with a caramel flavor. The full-bodied taste and aroma goes well with vanilla and chocolate and it gives sweet treats a delicious maltiness. Mesquite can be mixed with nut milk, is an excellent ingredient in smoothies and is delicious sprinkled on ice cream. An exquisite malty chocolate can be made with it, and mesquite can also be used as a partial aromatic substitute for flour. It is a wonderful food to experiment with SamaraNatura organic mesquite powder Our mesquite powder is made from the whole pods of the mesquite tree, which are gently dried and then processed into a flour or powder. Since there is no guarantee that the temperature will always remain below 42°C during drying, we refrain from using the term raw food quality. How to use Mesquite is a delicious ingredient for cakes, desserts, smoothies, ice cream and homemade bread. It tastes particularly good in combination with cocoa and maca.

Tip

Yacon Syrup Organic

Yacon Syrup Organic - Delicious, prebiotic sweetener Yacon is grown in the high mountain valleys of the Andes and has a dense root system that is full of minerals, vitamins and complex vital substances. The freshly squeezed juice of the root is a gift from nature and has been enjoyed by the Andean peoples for centuries. The special thing about Yacon is the quality of its sugar, which is mainly in the form of oligofructose (or fructooligosaccharides). Oligofructose cannot be used by the digestive enzymes and therefore hardly causes any calories and protects the blood sugar level. In addition, as a prebiotic, oligofructose supports a healthy intestinal flora. An ideal sweetener for diabetics, health-conscious and diet-conscious people alike. Why we love Yacon Syrup Yacon tastes delicious and has half as many calories as honey, for example. And on top of that, its sugar hardly increases the blood sugar level and avoids strenuous blood sugar highs and lows. Yacon syrup is also significantly less glycemic than honey, agave or maple syrup. The oligofructose in Yacon also supports the beneficial bacteria in the colon, thereby improving digestion and absorption of nutrients. The indigestible sugar thus serves the beneficial bacteria as prebiotic food. SamaraNatura Yacon Syrup Our yacon syrup comes from traditional varieties from the Peruvian Andes and is 100% natural, grown without pesticides and agrochemicals. It is produced at low temperatures, which guarantees that the syrup retains a very high quality of nutrients and enzymes. This yacon syrup is thickened from yacon juice in a special vacuum process at low temperatures of 45°C. Since this yacon syrup can only be kept for a relatively short time without pasteurization, it is pasteurized at 70°C for 3 minutes. The syrup is therefore not raw food, but processed very gently, which means that the valuable nutrients and enzymes in the roots are largely retained. How to use Yacon syrup can be used in many ways as a sweetener. It can be used to sweeten desserts, drinks and smoothies. For salad dressings, we like to mix the syrup with vinegar, as a substitute for balsamic vinegar, which usually contains a lot of sugar. The sweetness of the syrup is less strong than the sweetness of sugar, honey or agave syrup. To support a healthy intestinal flora, 1 teaspoon is sufficient daily. For a better shelf life, we recommend storing the yacon syrup in the refrigerator.

Xylitol birch sugar

Xylitol birch sugar from Finland 100% pure Update: Our SamaraNatura birch sugar is sold out. As an interim solution, we have a few bags of Tautona available. The price is the same and the quality is also very good (made in Finland from local birch and beech wood). Why buy xylitol birch sugar? Xylitol is a sugar substitute and has the same sweetening power as white sugar. For baking, sweetening drinks (tea, coffee & co) and desserts as well as for refining sauces and dressings Has no unpleasant flavour of its own Low in calories: 40% fewer calories and 75% fewer carbohydrates Low glycaemic index (approx. 11 | compared to sugar of approx. 70) Dental care effect: to prevent plaque and tooth decay Xylitol looks and tastes like sugar and can therefore be used 1:1 like normal sugar, in hot and cold drinks, cakes and desserts. What makes our xylitol birch sugar special? We have tried a number of natural sweeteners over the years and after discovering xylitol, it has become one of our favourite sweeteners. Our xylitol comes from Finland Extracted exclusively from European birch and beech wood Maximum processing temperature is 25°C = raw food quality 100% pure, white, granular product (looks like granulated sugar) Originally, xylitol only came from birch bark. However, scientists in China found a way to extract xylitol from maize glucose. The problem here is that large quantities of pesticides are often used in the cultivation of maize and the soil is damaged. How is birch sugar produced? Xylitol is produced by the hydrogenation of xylose, which converts the sugar into a primary alcohol. This sugar alcohol, however, has nothing to do with ordinary alcohol. Xylitol occurs naturally in tree bark, but also in some types of fruit and vegetables. As birch bark is traditionally used for this purpose in Finland, the name birch sugar has also become established. Size variants Xylitol birch sugar is available in two sizes. In the practical 500g bag for CHF 11 and in the 1kg economy price bag for CHF 17.50. As is usual with all SamaraNatura products, we grant a 5% discount on quantities of 3 or more bags. Consumption recommendations As birch sugar has practically no flavour of its own, it is very suitable for sweetening tea and coffee. Other sweeteners such as agave syrup or yacon syrup often have a caramel flavour, which makes them more suitable for creams and desserts. However, birch sugar is not suitable for yeast baked goods, as yeast cannot metabolise xylitol. Xylitol belongs to the class of sugar alcohols that can have a laxative effect if consumed in excess. It is best to start with a small amount of 1 tablespoon per day so that the body can adjust to the new food and then slowly increase this amount. Warning: Xylitol is toxic to dogs as it causes rapid drops in blood sugar levels and seizures. Baking with xylitol For homemade chocolate and raw cakes, we recommend grinding the crystals into a fine powder (powdered sugar) (using a blender or coffee grinder). This prevents sugar lumps from forming. Coconut blossom sugar: the alternative or supplement to xylitol Coconut blossom sugar tastes similar to brown sugar, but even better! It has a rich, sugary-sweet caramel flavour and many chefs appreciate how coconut sugar refines their culinary dishes and makes them tastier.

Coconut blossom sugar organic

Coconut blossom sugar 100% natural in high fineness The sugar with a caramel flavour Coconut blossom sugar has a wonderful, caramel-like flavour and is obtained from the flower nectar of coconut palms. It is a better, mineral-rich alternative to cane sugar, containing lots of potassium, magnesium, zinc and iron. It is also a good source of vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6 and C and amino acids (especially glutamic acid). Its low glycaemic index (GI=35) ensures a slow release of energy. Coconut blossom sugar is therefore a sweetener suitable for everyone. Our organic coconut sugar consists of 100% coconut nectar from the palm species Coco Nucifera. A suitable sweetener for the health-conscious consumer. Why buy coconut blossom sugar? SamaraNatura coconut blossom sugar tastes similar to brown sugar, but better! It has a rich, sugary-sweet caramel flavour and many chefs appreciate how coconut sugar enhances their culinary dishes and makes them tastier. Compared to other sweeteners, coconut blossom sugar has a much lower glycaemic index. This means that it releases its energy more slowly and avoids the usual sugar highs and lows of normal sugar in the body. What we particularly appreciate is that this sweetener is one of the few truly sustainable foods in the world! In terms of humanity, the environment and health, coconut blossom sugar has extraordinary benefits in every respect. It lifts communities out of poverty, provides much-needed nutrients to the body in a way that often does the opposite (as a sweetener), and helps preserve fragile tropical rainforests. In fact, it helps restore the ecological balance of degraded areas. What makes our xylitol birch sugar special? Our coconut blossom sugar is 100% natural, organic, unbleached and free from additives and artificial flavourings. It consists only of the nectar of coconut palms and is not mixed with other palm sugars, which would compromise its exquisite quality. Our coconut sugar is a sustainable product and supports local communities and families in Indonesia. Some palm sugars on the market are also blended with cane sugar and other malt-based ingredients. SamaraNatura coconut sugar is pure palm sugar made from 100% coconut nectar from the Coco Nucifera species. Incidentally, coconut palm sugar is not obtained from the palm species used for the production of palm oil. Our granulated coconut palm nectar is not raw, i.e. processed at temperatures above 42°C. We prefer a higher quality and offer sieved coconut blossom sugar with a higher fineness (Mesh 30). This means that the sugar grains are smaller and finer than those of other palm sugar (mesh 18) on the market. Consumption recommendations Coconut blossom sugar melts very easily in hot and cold drinks. The sweetener is delicious in desserts, smoothies and pastries. A small spoonful of our rich coconut sugar is a healthy treat that satisfies cravings and provides instant energy. Coconut sugar can be used like brown sugar in a 1:1 ratio. Xylitol birch sugar: the alternative or supplement to coconut blossom sugar Xylitol is a sugar substitute and has the same sweetening power as white sugar, has no taste of its own, is low in calories (40% fewer calories and 75% fewer carbohydrates) and has a very low glycaemic index (approx. 11 | compared to sugar of approx. 70). It also helps to prevent plaque and tooth decay. Xylitol looks and tastes like sugar and can therefore be used 1:1 like normal sugar, in hot and cold drinks, cakes and desserts.

This organic apple syrup was developed by Swiss raw food pioneer Urs Hochstrasser to "sweeten life with a clear conscience". Soyana produces the organic apple syrup in raw food quality from 100% Swiss organic apples according to Urs' strict guidelines. Gentle thickening at below 43° C preserves many enzymes and nutrients (in contrast to many other sweeteners that are pasteurised). Use of organic apple syrup With its fruity apple flavour, it is ideal for sweetening smoothies, raw food desserts and cakes. In combination with tart or malty dry powders such as cocoa and maca, we recommend using caramelised agave syrup (raw food) or yacon syrup (not raw food) for reasons of flavour.
