Lemon Aspen Powder — FAQs
Common questions about our freeze dried Australian lemon aspen powder
Freeze dried lemon aspen powder from Australia, ground from the tart, citrusy native fruit. Here are the questions we hear most.
What is lemon aspen powder?
Lemon aspen (Acronychia acidula, also called lemon wood) is an Australian rainforest tree, and its fruit is eaten as a bush food. Our powder is the freeze dried fruit, ground fine. It is a food powder, not a live plant, tree, seed or essential oil.
Where does lemon aspen grow, and is this powder Australian?
Lemon aspen is native to the rainforests of Queensland. Our Lemon Aspen Powder is sourced in Australia.
What does lemon aspen taste like?
It is tart and aromatic, with a bright citrus flavour and grapefruit-like notes. The sharpness is noticeable, so many people start with a small amount and add more to taste.
How do I use lemon aspen powder?
Use it wherever you would like a sharp citrus lift. Stir it into dressings, marinades, sauces and mayonnaise, blend it with salt or sugar, fold it into curds, jams, cakes and shortbread, or mix it into syrups, juices and cocktails.
How much lemon aspen powder should I use?
As a general guide, start with about 1/4 teaspoon and adjust to taste, as the flavour is strong and tart. This is a guide only. It is sold as a food, and if you have a health condition, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or take medication, please check with a healthcare professional first.
Is lemon aspen the same as lemon myrtle?
No. They are different Australian native plants. Lemon aspen (Acronychia acidula) is a tart fruit, while lemon myrtle is a leaf with a different, lemon-scented flavour. This product is made from lemon aspen fruit only.
Is this powder made from the fruit, and what else is in it?
Yes. It is made from freeze dried lemon aspen fruit, and the only ingredient is 100% lemon aspen, with nothing added.
Can I buy lemon aspen powder in bulk?
Yes. It is available in 50g and 250g sizes, and bulk and wholesale quantities are available on request. Contact The Herbal Connection for larger orders or a wholesale account.
Is lemon aspen powder organic?
This product is spray-free but it is not certified organic. It is a single-ingredient freeze dried lemon aspen powder from Australia. Store it below 23 °C in a dark place, ideally in an airtight container.
