You can find macs powder at most health food stores. But, it is quite optional for this recipe.

I would love to try these, glad to see maca is optional, but what is maca powder? - 8/10/10

Macau is a Peruvian superfood. It is a great antioxidant as well as it aides in balancing out hormones. Good for those who are approaching menopause or pre menopause.
