Our powder is made from vine-ripened bananas, organically grown in Ecuador. It is usually a period of 18 months between plantation and harvest, though the region’s consistently warm climate, frequent rainfall and fertile soils allow bananas to grow year round.

The banana plant is in fact a massive herb that pushes up from the ground to form a pseudo trunk of around 3-6 metres in height. At the crown there are between 10-20 broad elliptical leaves, from which the female flowers emerge. As the banana bunches begin to develop, the central stalk droops downwards under the fruit’s weight, not surprising considered the red banana plant can produce up to 100 individual fruits. The bananas are clustered into small groups, sometimes referred to as hands
Our organic red banana powder and red banana flakes are carefully prepared to retain the unique taste of vine-ripened Ecuadorian bananas. Full of vitamins and minerals, they are ideal for dusting on desserts or blending with other nutrient-rich products to create energising healthy milkshakes and smoothies.
