About Mango Powder

Ustawi mango powder is milled from surplus ripe mangoes bought from farmers in Makueni County, turning harvest waste into a shelf-stable, Vitamin A-rich fruit powder. Stir it into smoothies, porridge, yoghurt, juices and desserts for natural mango flavour all year round.

Why mango powder matters

Buying surplus mangoes turns a perishable glut into a shelf-stable product, which gives farmers a market for fruit that would otherwise rot and lets households use mango out of season. It is rich in Vitamin A, and because no sugar is added the sweetness comes from the fruit itself.

Where it comes from

Milled from surplus ripe mangoes bought from farmers in Makueni County — one of Kenya's leading mango-producing areas, with over four million trees. During the season a large share of the harvest has historically gone to waste because fruit ripens faster than it can be sold fresh.

How to use Mango Powder

  • Smoothies and juices: blend 3 tablespoons with banana, yoghurt and water or milk. Blend fully — the powder is finely milled but needs a complete blend to avoid a grainy texture.
  • Porridge and yoghurt: stir a spoonful into uji, porridge or yoghurt for mango flavour and colour.
  • Baking and desserts: add to cakes, muffins, ice cream and sauces.
  • Storage: keep sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and reseal after opening.

FAQs

Questions About Ordering

How do I order Ustawi products in Kenya?

Call or WhatsApp +254 (0)799 672 501 or email Ustawicarecompany@gmail.com. We deliver across Kenya from our base in Makueni County, and can quote for bulk and wholesale supply on request.

Do Ustawi flours need cooking?

No. Our flours are precooked, so they are ready in about two minutes. Mix with hot or cold water or milk and stir — there is no need to boil them first. They also work well in pancakes, chapati, cakes and porridge if you prefer to cook with them.

Are Ustawi products gluten free?

Our sweet potato flour is naturally gluten free, and the whole meal flour is based on sorghum, pumpkin and amaranth rather than wheat. If you have coeliac disease or a severe allergy, always check the pack label for the specific product before use.

Are Ustawi products certified organic?

Our products are not certified organic, so we describe them as natural rather than organic. They are made from natural ingredients with no artificial preservatives, added flavours or colours.

Where are Ustawi products made?

In Makueni County, Kenya. We buy from smallholder farmers in the county — over 500 of them — and mill locally, which keeps the supply chain short and helps reduce post-harvest waste.

How should I store Ustawi flours and honey?

Keep flours sealed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, and reseal the pack after opening. Store honey at room temperature; there is no need to refrigerate it. If honey crystallises, that is normal for raw unprocessed honey — stand the jar in warm water to loosen it again.

Is Ustawi suitable for children?

Yes. Our porridge flours are widely used for family breakfasts and for young children. The biofortified sweet potato flour is milled from Vitamin A-rich orange-fleshed sweet potatoes, and Vitamin A is a nutrient of particular importance for growing children.
