• Loving Earth's raw chocolate superfood bars are a delicious range of raw organic chocolate snack bars combining the goodness of raw cacao with an array of Loving Earth's favourite superfoods. A deliciously decadent yet healthy treat, these chocolate superfood bars contain no cane sugar or dairy. Uncooked and unprocessed, this is real chocolate in its purest, richest, most essential form.
  
  Sweetened with organic coconut nectar (a natural, low GI sweetener), the cacao beans in these bars are not roasted, meaning that their natural wealth of phytonutrients (plant-nutrients) remain fully intact. These raw chocolate bars have been independently tested to contain up to twice the amount of antioxidants of conventionally processed chocolate. They're also high in iron, calcium, magnesium, and full of natural bliss chemicals. Wrapped in the world's first ever compostable metalised film, you can pop the empty packet straight into your compost bin! We love.
  
  *Excludes Raspberry Cashew flavour.
• Our raw chocolate superfood bars are a delicious energising snack for whenever you need a boost. Perfect for afternoon tea alongside some raw brazil nuts or almonds and a herbal tea. The heart shape of the chocolate also makes them a perfect gift.
  
  Our favourite flavours - Mylk for a dairy-milk style smooth creamy experience. Mandarin for a fresh Vitamin C hit which provides enhanced absorption of cacao's amazing iron content. Mint for a delicious dark chocolate mint flavour. Or Caramel for a smooth and creamy milky-bar style treat.

• Our Raw Organic Maca Powder comes from Junin, Peru. Grown at 4,100m above sea level in the Andes, Maca is the energising and revitalising superfood of the Incas, where it is revered for its aphrodisiac qualities and wide-ranging benefits to the hormonal system. The Pumpush people of Peru have been cultivating and consuming Maca as a staple food for thousands of years.

  Maca contains high amounts of vitamins, minerals, and enzymes, all the essential amino acids to make a complete protein (maca has a whopping 14% protein content), and nearly 60 phytochemicals. The extraordinary health benefits of Maca are due to the way it promotes optimal functioning of the hypothalamus and pituitary master glands. Maca contains unique alkaloids that stimulate the master glands, which in turn improves the overall functioning of the endocrine system.
  
  Now also available in 1kg size.

• Add 1 to 5 heaped teaspoons of maca to your favourite juice, smoothie or cereal 1 or 2 times a day.
  
  For the ancient Incans and modern day Peruvians, especially in the Junin district of the Andes, Maca is a staple food. So you can eat as much as you like - the more you eat, the more energy and overall vigour you will experience. Maca is non-toxic, has no dangerous side affects and no withdrawal symptoms. So the quantity you can take really depends on how much hormonal rebalancing you need.
  
  We recommend starting with 1 teaspoon per day, then increasing up to 5 teaspoons depending on your weight and hormonal balancing requirements.

  "Maca helped me get pregnant! I had read that Maca was really good for fertility (and libido). I wasn't sure how much to believe, but we'd been trying for a while and nada. So I started taking Maca, and a few months later we fell pregnant. Amazing! Unbelievable. I've heard lots of other positive stories like this too, so can't recommend to other women highly enough."

Their goal is to bring to the market the latest high-quality, super-nutrient functional foods, snack foods and cosmetics.
  
  While extracts of various foods have been used in supplements for many years, a new movement away from supplements and towards whole Superfoods has arisen, and promises to offer greater benefits to health through the premise that the synergistic interaction of the nutrients gained from natural wholefoods has more to offer than one or two components being extracted and put into a tablet. Often the balance, ratio and type of nutrients found in wholefoods leads to superior assimilation and absorption by the body. There is a renewed belief that eating wholefoods (and particularly wholefoods with super-nutrient qualities) is of greater benefit than simple supplementation with individual extracts.

• Spirulina is a type of blue-green algae that is rich in protein, vitamins, minerals, and carotenoids - antioxidants that can help protect cells from damage. It is popular for being an extremely high source of plant-based protein (over 60%), and is a complete protein with all 8 essential amino acids. It also contains numerous nutrients including B complex vitamins, folic acid, beta-carotene, vitamin E, manganese, zinc, copper, iron, selenium, calcium, potassium, and gamma linolenic acid (GLA - an essential fatty acid).
  
  Studies suggest spirulina can boost the immune system and have antiviral and anticancer properties. We like adding a teaspoon to our green smoothies for an extra vitamin boost. Our spirulina is certified organic with no additives.
• Use 1-3 teaspoons per day. Add a teaspoon to your favourite smoothie or juice.
  
  You can also mix a teaspoon into fruit and nut bliss balls or bars, or sprinkle on cereal, fruit salad and yoghurt. See our Recipes tab for more ideas.

• Our certified organic Coconut Sugar is a great tasting cane sugar alternative produced from tropical coconut palm blossoms. With a rich toffee-like flavour, it is unrefined, unfiltered, unbleached, preservative-free, and remains in a raw unheated state preserving its rich mineral profile.
  
  Coconut palms produce an average of 50-75% more sugar per acre than sugar cane, and use less than 1/5th of the nutrients for that production, leading to Coconut Sugar's reputation as the most sustainable sweetener in the world. Our Coconut Sugar is fairly sourced from family farmers in Indonesia, thus helping to provide them with viable livelihoods.
  
  Coconut Sugar is low on the Glycemic Index with a GI rating of 35, which is beneficial for weight management and people with diabetes. In comparison, most commercial honeys are GI 55+ and cane sugars are GI 68. Low GI allows for a slow release of energy, efficiently fueling your day-to-day activities and avoiding the highs and lows associated with most commercial sugars. Many people with an intolerance for Fructose have also found Coconut Sugar to be beneficial since it is primarily Sucrose based.
  
  Now available in 1kg size.
• Coconut sugar is slightly less sweet than cane sugar, but has a richer, caramel-like flavour. To substitute in place of cane sugar, we recommend using 25% more per cup (e.g. 1 cup of cane sugar = 1 1/4 cup of coconut sugar).
  
  It is brilliant for baking, cakes, fruit crumbles, and savoury cooking, and makes a delicious healthy replacement for regular white cane sugar in tea, coffee, and other hot drinks.

  "The best healthy substitute for sugar. I've been using this in all my baking recipes in place of regular sugar, and it's great. So good to know you can achieve the exact same results, but with a sweetener that's low GI, unprocessed, and actually good for you!"

• Our raw organic Mesquite Powder hails from Peru, where it has been used as a staple food for centuries by desert dwellers. It has an incredibly low GI of 25 which helps to maintain stable blood sugar and energy levels. It also has a very high natural protein content at 16%, as well as a high mineral content with significant quantities of calcium, magnesium, potassium, iron and zinc. Per 100g, our mesquite has an impressive 5 times the iron of beef, 5 times the calcium of cow's milk, and 30% more magnesium than fish. It's also low in carbohydrate, low in fat, and rich in the amino acid lysine.
  
  Mesquite has a delicious sweet taste with a slightly nutty wild flavour and a hint of caramel. Our mesquite is comprised 100% of whole ground pods and has a high level of dietary fibre, another reason why it has such a low GI rating. It therefore takes a long time for the body to process, giving you long-lasting energy and reducing hunger for a sustained period.
• Sweet and caramel-like, Mesquite makes a brilliant addition to cakes, ice cream, and raw desserts. It's also fantastic sprinkled on your favourite breakfast cereal, or mixed in with your bircher muesli. It works perfectly as a natural whole food protein powder, and can be added to smoothies to give a delicious creamy depth and roundness of flavour. It blends particularly well with our raw Cacao and Maca.
  
  You can also use it as a partial flour substitute in baking and pancakes to increase the protein content, lower the GI, and increase the overall nutritional value. Or try making this delicious healthy caramel sauce.

• Lucuma is a natural low GI sweetener, rich in antioxidants, and full of vitamins, minerals, fibre, and healthy carbohydrates.

  Pronounced loo-koo-ma, this exotic Peruvian fruit looks a little like a nashi pear crossed with a mango. It has a delicious creamy citrus flavour with a hint of maple and a dash of sweet potato (NZ kumara). It's sometimes called the "eggfruit" in English, due to the texture of the fruit's flesh, which is quite dry like a hard-boiled egg yolk. Our lucuma powder is made by drying the fruit at low temperatures to retain all their vital nutrients, then milling them into a superfine powder.

  Lucuma is known by the local people of Peru as the "Gold of the Incas", and has been cherished for centuries, both as a staple food source, and a religious offering associated with fertility. Today, the fruit still plays a big part in contemporary Peruvian celebrations, and is the most popular flavour of ice cream in the country! The fruit is so well loved by the locals, there are even 26 villages named after it.

• Lucuma powder is a super versatile and tasty gourmet ingredient that can be added to ice cream, yoghurt, smoothies, cocktails, cakes and raw desserts.
  
  Try making Peru's favourite ice cream flavour using this recipe here. Or add 1-2 Tbsp of Lucuma to your favourite smoothie, yoghurt or sprinkled over your buckinis, for breakfast or as a snack. You can also add a teaspoon to your bircher muesli for a creamy caramel twist.
  
  It also makes a delicious healthy caramel sauce, and can be added to nut butter, raw chocolate and raw desserts. For more ideas see here.

• Our certified organic Superchoc is a natural chocolate drink designed to smooth out the peaks and troughs in your day. Most chocolate drinks contain 21% heat-treated cocoa and 79% refined sugar, along with a bunch of nasty additives. Instead, Matakana Superfoods' Superchoc is pure, natural and with no empty calories.
  
  It uses the smoothest, rarest and most sought-after certified organic heritage variety of cacao, called Criollo (the original Cacao bean - before commercial breeding reduced the flavor and smoothness). The naturally high 24% protein content of Cacao is then enhanced with high protein Peruvian supernut/seed Sacha Inchi Powder, adding an earthy nutty flavour to the mix. It's then sweetened with a hint of low GI Coconut Sugar and Lucuma Powder.
  
  Note: This hot chocolate mix has quite an earthy taste to it and is not overly sweet, so we prefer to add a bit more coconut sugar to our drinks to get that optimal flavour. If you're looking for a more traditional (but still healthy) drinking chocolate without the Sacha Inchi Powder, try our Loving Earth version here.
• Superchoc is a natural and nutritious chocolate drink, that can be added to your favourite milk to make a delicious smoothie or a satisfying hot drink. The combination of rich Proteins, Amino Acids, Vitamins, Minerals, Antioxidants and Phenolic compounds gives you a drink you can rely on to prep or replenish your muscle, electrolyte and energy stores before or after strenuous exercise, a hard day’s work or when you need your mind to be at peak performance for long periods during the day.
  
  Just blend one tablespoon with your favourite plant-based milk. Hot or cold, this will be delicious. We also like to add an extra teaspoon of organic coconut sugar to the mix.

• Matakana SuperFoods certified organic freeze dried coconut water is extracted from young green coconuts, and contains all the vitamins and minerals that would ordinarily ensure the continued development of the coconut.
  
  Our coconut water is completely pure, and not loaded with sweeteners, preservatives or colouring. It is low in calories, acts as a superior natural electrolyte replacement, and is particularly great for rehydration on long haul flights.
  
  While freeze-drying is the most expensive drying process, it delivers a product of superior quality, and when reconstituted in a glass of water delivers all the goodness, freshness and flavour of a freshly harvested coconut. It also means we get to enjoy all the goodness of fresh coconut water, without a tonne of food miles and carbon footprinting in transportation!
• Coconut water is so versatile. Whether you prefer to drink it on the run, or use it as a base for your smoothies, it can be used as a substitute for juice in anything and everything. Just add 1 tablespoon (10g) of freeze dried coconut water powder to 250ml (one standard glass) of water.
  
  Freeze dried Coconut Water is also a traveller's best friend. Whether you're going by air, bus or even cycling, it's quick and easy to add to your pump bottle and be well hydrated for your next adventure. We recommend drinking ~250ml of rehydrated coconut water every 2-3 hours during travel.

• Camu Camu is a bushy tree that grows along swampy rivers in Peru. The fruit is approximately 2cm in diameter and has a purplish red skin with a yellow pulp. Our raw Camu Camu is one of the highest sources of Vitamin C known to man with 12% Vitamin C. One tiny 2g serving provides you with 240mg of Vitamin C, compared to a whole orange at 70mg. What's more, since Camu Camu is a whole food in its natural form, your body can absorb the nutrients contained within much more effectively than a synthetic supplement, and this is supported by clinical evidence.
  
  Camu Camu has traditionally been used to strengthen the immune system, ward off viral infections, and help maintain optimal health, especially under conditions of stress and anxiety. It can promote energy and vitality in people with chronic immune dysfunction, and also help detoxify the body. It contains loads of goodness in the form of bioflavonoids, amino acids serine, valine, and leucine (the building blocks of protein), plus considerable quantities of B vitamins.
• Take 1 teaspoon of Camu Camu Powder at least once a day. Simply stir it into a glass of water. Alternatively, mix it with your favorite juice, smoothie or dessert to add a tangy citrus flavour.
  
  This product is best stored in a cool dry place.

• Thought to be the highest antioxidant fruit on the planet, our Maqui is a deep purple berry wild harvested in the pristine conditions of Southern Chile. The harsh climate of the region is credited with increasing the anthocyanin content (which creates the red colour, and high antioxidant level) of fruits and berries grown in that area, and this is seen in Maqui's ORAC score of 319,265 uM trolox/100g*. This means they contain 75% more antioxidants than Acai berries, and an incredible 35 times the antioxidants found in blueberries. Maqui berries when picked look very similar to blueberries (and Acai berries for that matter), and have traditionally been eaten fresh or used for juice, jams or wine-making.

  The Mapuche Indians have used Maqui Berry leaves, stems, fruits and wine medicinally for thousands of years. According to the Conquistadors, the Mapuche warriors ate very little solid food but drank a fermented beverage made from Maqui Berries several times a day, which may have contributed to the extraordinary strength and stamina that the warriors exhibited. Maqui Berries have also traditionally been used by the Mapuche Indians for sore throat, diarrhea, ulcers, haemorrhoids, birth-delivery, fever, tumors and other ailments.
  
  *ORAC scores (Oxygen radical absorbance capacity) are a way to measure the antioxidant content of a food or plant.

• Early in the day, Maqui is a great addition to your Buckinis or smoothies: add one teaspoon of Maqui Powder to meet your daily requirement. Or make a Maqui bowl, blending a tablespoon of Maqui powder with frozen berries, frozen banana, and coconut water. If you need an antioxidising hit in the evening, Maqui's sweet, tart flavour goes great with many desserts.
  
  Unlike many other powders, you'll never get that gritty, grainy quality with Maqui. It dissolves beautifully, emanating a gorgeous purple sweetness.

• Supplier currently out of stock.  Expected delivery mid-May.
  
  Our Matakana SuperFoods Sacha Inchi Oil, also known as Inca Inchi Oil ("Almond of the Incas"), has a perfect balance of omega 3, 6 and 9 essential fatty acids (EFAs). It is one of the highest plant-based sources of Omega 3s in the world (48% Omega 3, and 84% total EFAs), making it a fantastic safe, healthy, mercury-free, sustainable and compassionate alternative to seafood and fish oil capsules. Omega 3 can't be produced by our bodies and therefore must be consumed. Omega 3's are known for their role in encouraging healthy skin, hair, nails, joints, and brain function; improving post-workout recovery and cardiovascular function; increasing metabolism and promoting fat-burning; and preventing heart disease, high blood pressure, cancer, and arthritis.
  
  Sacha Inchi oil is one of the most nutritious, healthy oils on the planet and as well as its fantastic Omega profile, is also filled with antioxidants and contains all 8 factors of Vitamin E. It is one of our favourite additions in a healthy plant-based diet, and a great alternative to your Chia Seed Oil, Flaxseed Oil and Hemp Oil. Our Sacha Inchi oil is raw, unrefined, extra virgin, and cold pressed to maintain the maximum amount of nutrients. What's more, the Inca Inchi brand of Sacha Inchi Oil has recently won gold medals at the European Food Fair in France for best new culinary oil. Its mild, nutty flavour is rapidly becoming a favourite amongst foodies around the world.
• Sacha Inchi oil is best served raw and unheated in order to retain its Omega 3 properties. It can be used in much the same way as you would use extra virgin olive oil, avocado oil or flaxseed oil – in salad dressings, vinaigrettes, pestos, drizzled on vegetables, through pasta, or used as a dip for freshly baked bread with dukkah. You can also add a tablespoon to your favourite smoothie for an extra Omega hit. Or make our favourite salad dressing by mixing 2 Tablespoons Sacha Inchi Oil with 1 Tablespoon apple cider vinegar or lemon juice, a pinch of organic sea salt, black pepper and some fresh chopped herbs. See our Recipes tab for more ideas.
  
  You can also use as a nourishing skin and body moisturiser, or massage oil.
  
  Note: Always use Sacha Inchi Oil raw, it will lose its beneficial Omega 3 properties if heated. Once opened keep in the fridge.

• Monk Fruit is a small sweet melon native to China and Southeast Asia. It is said to have been named after Buddhist Monks, who are believed to have been the first to cultivate the fruit - all the way back in the 13th century! Also known as Luo Han Guo, it was traditionally used in herbal medicine.
  
  
  Unlike traditional sweeteners, Monk Fruit doesn't get its sweetness from sugar and therefore won't spike your blood sugar levels, making it a great sugar alternative for diabetics. Monk Fruit's sweetness actually comes from a unique chemical it contains known as mogroside which doesn't leave any bitter aftertaste unlike other chemical sweeteners such as stevia. This compound is also 200-300 times sweeter than regular sugar - so a little definitely goes a long way!
• Add to coffee, tea, baking and smoothies - or wherever you need a little natural sugar-free sweetener. Remember a little goes a long way!

• Monk fruit powder, natural dextrin free flow. No preservatives or other additives.

On my second order of monk fruit I was hooked! I baked a cheesecake last night and everyone raved! I don't drink sweet coffee, tea or have anything with sweeteners except my dessert so I don't know what this is like in drinks."

It is a close relative of the sunflower and Jerusalem artichoke and was traditionally used as a refreshing snack by indigenous Peruvian farmers. For this reason, it's a great sugar alternative for diabetics or people looking to reduce sugar in their diet.

It's a prebiotic that can help in weight control and gut health, is naturally low-calorie and low GI as well as being rich in fructooligosaccharides (FOS). FOS are a type of sugar not absorbed into the bloodstream - instead providing important nutrients to beneficial microflora of the colon and supporting healthy bowel function, calcium absorption and cholesterol levels.

• Stevia has been used for centuries as a way to naturally sweeten food and beverages. It is derived from a herb native to South America that provides its sweetness from their unique natural chemicals (steviosides). Combined with Monk Fruit, a type of gourd first cultivated by Chinese Buddhist monks in the 13th Century, this sweetener is at least 200 times sweeter than regular sugar!
  
  
  Unlike traditional sweeteners, Stevia with Monk Fruit doesn't get its sweetness from sugar and therefore won't spike your blood sugar levels, making it a great sugar alternative for diabetics. 
• Add to coffee, tea, baking and smoothies - or wherever you need a little natural sugar-free sweetener. Remember a little goes a long way!
• 
  
  
  
• Stevia extract power* (steviosides 91%), Monk Fruit juice powder (mogrosides 7%) and natural dextrin free flow.

Their goal is to bring to the market the latest high-quality, super-nutrient functional foods, snack foods and cosmetics.
  
  While extracts of various foods have been used in supplements for many years, a new movement away from supplements and towards whole Superfoods has arisen, and promises to offer greater benefits to health through the premise that the synergistic interaction of the nutrients gained from natural wholefoods has more to offer than one or two components being extracted and put into a tablet. Often the balance, ratio and type of nutrients found in wholefoods leads to superior assimilation and absorption by the body. There is a renewed belief that eating wholefoods (and particularly wholefoods with super-nutrient qualities) is of greater benefit than simple supplementation with individual extracts.

• "I like using these to make an easy trail mix with a healthy chocolate hit. I use cacao beans, goji berries, raw brazil nuts, almonds, cashews, hazelnuts, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, raisins, figs and dates. Ok so that sounds like a lot of ingredients but honestly it's so easy and so delicious!"
  
  - Rachel Mathers (Wellington, New Zealand)
  
  "Now I can eat chocolate every day! I mix these with yoghurt or sprinkle on my cereal. They're more bitter than regular chocolate, but that's because there's no sugar or dairy in them - just pure cacao. I just mix them with something slightly sweeter or with dried fruit and they're delicious! I've come to love the darker richer flavour now too."
