## Description

You can use the purple sweet potato in many of the same ways you’d use a regular sweet potato, but the striking purple hue adds a colorful twist to mashed potatoes, home fries, and soups (imagine a gorgeous lavender bisque). Its color is completely natural as it comes from the same pigment that makes cherries and strawberries red/purple. Purple Sweet Potato Powder comes from the root vegetable of the same name and is only distantly related to potatoes. It is sometimes confused with taro and the Okinawa sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas cv. Ayamurasaki), although D. alata is also grown in Okinawa where it is known as beniimo.. The origin and domestication of sweet potato is thought to be either Central or South America. The purple Sweet Potatoes are dried at a low heat to preserve the vitamins, minerals and nutrients. Our Purple Sweet Potato Powder is 100% pure, raw with no added ingredients – Grade A Premium Quality. A drink made with Purple Sweet Potato Powder can be enjoyed hot or cold Add to cereal, porridge, yogurt, smoothies or use in baking! Avoid exposure to direct sunlight, keep in a cool, dry place. Purple sweet potato or purple yam, continue to gain popularity all over the world. They have been turned into so many interesting dishes like ice cream flavor, chips, paste, just to name a few.

Review: Awesome for use in my sourdough - Saw pink sourdough on Pinterest, and had to try. I made pink bread for finger sandwiches for Galentines Day with my friends. Look at it!! It was freaky but fabulous. Looked like cake. Tasted like bread.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this considered to be powdered ube? Or is it a different type of purple yam?**
A: Purple Sweet Potato Powder is not the same as powdered ube. The botanical name of the purple sweet potato we use is Ipomoea batatas whereas purple ube is known as Dioscorea alata.
Ube is sometimes confused with taro and the purple sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas cv. Ayamurasaki) but is actually another root.

**Q: How many calories per serving?**
A: We've uploaded the nutrition label of the purple sweet potato powder for you. 
The Serving Size is 1 teaspoon (4g) (Servings Per Container: 18) at 1,0 calories per serving.
The entire 2.64oz/75g pack has 18 calories.

**Q: Is the powder fine enough to color frosting?**
A: Yes, it definitely is. I would add a dash of milk and dissolve first, then add to your frosting.

**Q: Is the origin of the sweet potatoes from China?**
A: The Purple Sweet Potato Powder is made in Germany using only 100% imported Chinese purple sweet potatoes, nothing else goes in the final product except for 100% pure purple sweet potatoes.
