One way to spice up your favourite oat lattes is with some blue colour and with our spirulina powder; everything will be as blue as the ocean. Let the fun begin and buy your very own portion of blue magic! Spirulina – the power microalgae Spirulina, also known as arthrospira platensis, is a tiny greenish-blue sweet water microalgae that grows in alkaline waters of Mexico, Asia and South America. The presence of these algae dates back to 3.5 billion years ago and are one of the oldest organisms around the world. Spirulina has a longstanding tradition as a food and was previously grown by the Aztecs from the Lake Texoco, a sea that has almost disappeared today, in the region of modern day Mexico City. The Aztecs already new about the power of the microalgae and used dry spirulina in their baked goods and soups. If this arose your interest in the fascinating world of algae, take a look at our shop where you can also find spirulina's sibling chlorella!
