Updated to add: Entries are no longer valid for this contest. It has ended and a winner has been chosen. Thanks!

First, I’d love to send out a huge thank you to the Living Tree Community company for sending delicious samples for me to sample and review and also for graciously offering to sponsor this contest so you can try some of their products, too!

Note: I reviewed these products before my 30-day juice fast began–I am just now getting to writing the review/posting the contest.

A while back, I received a box of goodies from Living Tree Community. This is a fantabulous company! They create delicious raw products that they refer to as “Alive”.

I had the awesome opportunity to sample their raw cashew nut butter and also their organic chocolate maca energy butter. I give both products a HUGE thumbs up and I’d definitely try them again! I am also loving the company’s passion for providing us with the most “alive”, raw products as they possibly can! :-)

Organic Cashew Butter

(What? It was DELICIOUS!!!)

raw cashew butter, Living Tree Community

From the Living Tree Community site:

Nowadays cashews come from India, Tanzania, Vietnam and Cambodia. In our experience the best come from Brazil. This is natural enough as that’s where the cashew originated. It was domesticated long before the arrival of Europeans at the end of the fifteenth century. It was “discovered” by European traders and explorers and taken from Brazil to India and East Africa, where it soon became naturalized. Living Tree Cashew Butter is made from Brazilian cashews. Try it on apple slices or carrot sticks. Also be sure to try our cashews. What a delightful addition to school lunches!

The cashew nut butter was to DIE LIVE for!! Oh my gosh, it was soooooooooooo delicious! I remember even now. I was so, so sad when the jar was empty!!

Organic Chocolate Maca Energy Butter

maca

From the Living Tree Community site:

By combining raw cacao with lavender flowers, mint leaves, honey, agave nectar, Living Tree Alive Olive Oil, sundried raisins, nutmeg, cardamon and cayenne we have brought you a uniquely sophisticated taste.

The organic chocolate maca energy butter was definitely a NEW and DIFFERENT taste for me. I wasn’t sure I liked it at first. I think it’s because it’s such strong, live flavors. I will say this, though: I totally, totally felt a “lift” after eating it each time–and I LOVE that!!

Living Tree Community Contest!!


What You Get

You’ll be winning:

  • 1 -16 ounce jar Coconut Mango Persimmon Butter
  • 1 – 8 ounce jar Raw Almond Butter

living-tree-community-raw-foods

From the Living Tree Community site:

Organic Coconut Mango Persimmon Butter

We’ve combined organic mango, persimmon, pineapple and coconut to bring you a creation filled with the wonder of existence. The mango, pineapple and coconut convey the exuberance of the tropics, and the persimmon – the glow of California’s wondrous fertile Central Valley. Have also added raw cacao, sesame, sundried raisins, agave nectar, organic carob and a dash of Royal Himalayan pink crystal salt.

Organic Almond Butter

We began making almond butter over 25 years ago. At first our almond butter was roasted, but that has become a small part of what we do. Nowadays, our energy goes into making alive almond butter. We have developed, over the years, a proprietary process. We make it slowly, over several days. We slice, we do not grind. Furthermore, we make it frequently, in small batches so it’s fresh and alive.

    What an amazing contest!
    These products seem to be the perfect combination of healthy and a wonderful, decadent treat.
    Without your blog introducing me to these products, I would have no clue where to look, or what to look for as I journey along this road to better health.
    Already I can taste the wonderful smoothies I’m dreaming up in my mind!!!

    Hi Michele,
    I love Living Tree Community products, but have never tried the two in the give-away. They sound fabulous! I just posted this contest on my facebook. I’d love to win because I’ve been experimenting with raw food recipes, and these would be fun to play with in new recipes (or eat out of the jar, lol!).

    I am excited to try the products because

    1. Coconut Mango Persimmon Butter sounds fantastic! I’ve never had anything like it – sundried raisins? Sign me up!

    2. As a hopeless Jif peanut butter addict, I am trying to now only eat natural nut butters that don’t contain any partially hydrogenated oils. I have tried a few almond butters and love them, but I’ve never had any products from Living Tree Community!

I never got into the more “gourmet” aspects of it, though! I’d love to try that coconut/mango persimmon butter! That could be FANTASTIC with oats, or in a smoothie!

    Mmm those sound tasty. I’d like to try them because although there are lots of healthy veggies I can get on a tight budget, fancy things don’t make it into my diet. I always want to try different nut butters and more natural ingredients, but it’s hard being a very, very (did I say very) poor graduate student. I also have never won any blog contests and I could use a big boost for my ego since my thesis is slowly stealing my soul :)

Tropical flavors and coconut and my absolute favorite and they are flavors you don’t see offered and also being healthy too. I might have to order a jar :) Also being a daily peanut butter and occasional almond butter eater I would love to explore new kinds and see what raw butters are all about!

    I would like to try these products because I believe in raw food eating but I can’t get myself to get into all the work of it.( Also, I LOVE cheese.) (Sorry) I try to add as many raw foods to my diet as possible, like green monsters and raw items to finished recipes I cook. Also, I love mangoes, but I’m allergic to the skin. So for me to peel them involves gloves and making sure NOTHING touches the skin. I don’t peel them very often. Believe it or not it’s not that easy to get someone to peel one for me either. Sad. It’s hard to afford organic almond products these days so I’d love to try the butter (which I put in my GM’s) and be motivated to shell out the $$.
    Thanks.

    i REALLY want to win these. i live in a super small town that has not caught onto healthy eating and living. there is no health food stores anywhere near me, and i am forced to just make do with that is available. its really frustrating to not have access to healthy foods, and not have the money to order them online and pay shipping. Trying these products would be an AMAZING treat for me! i have never tried or heard of anything like them!

    I’ve never tried raw food before and am very curious about this way of eating. And the idea of living food is so intriguing! I’d like to experience it for myself. I’m up for any kind of new “butter” product, especially ones that sound as scrumptious and interesting as these!

    Well, this contest is right down my alley! First, I’m a bit obsessed with nuts and nut butters, especially almond. Second, two of my favorite fruits are mango and coconut. I have never had persimmon so I looked it up and notice dit had tumor fighting substances, catechin and gallocatechin. So basically, this giveaway is three of my all time favorite eats and one that I am very curious to try! Thanks!
