Lum Premium Palm Oil — Blended African Red Palm Oil for Achu & Cameroonian Cooking

Lum is a medium-density blend of Eposi and Engwari palm oils, giving you the perfect balance between light and heavy textures. 100% natural and unrefined, Lum is the most versatile palm oil in the MagsFood range — equally at home in everyday stews and traditional celebration dishes.

What Makes Lum Unique?

Lum brings together the color-richness of Eposi and the body of Engwari in one bottle. If you're unsure which palm oil to pick, Lum is your go-to: it works across a wider range of dishes than either oil alone, and its blended character produces an authentic, rounded flavor that is distinctly Central African.

Best Dishes to Cook with Lum Palm Oil

Lum is specifically recommended for these traditional recipes:

Achu soup — its medium body creates the iconic "yellow soup" texture without separating
Koki Beans — binds the filling and delivers deep color through the leaf parcel
Koki Corn — keeps the corn mixture moist and richly flavored
Okra soup — complements the natural viscosity of okra perfectly
Red oil stir-fries — the balanced density handles high heat better than single-origin oils

How Much Palm Oil Do I Need for a Meal?

For a pot of Achu soup (4–6 servings), typically 200–300ml of Lum is sufficient. For Koki, you'll use approximately 100–150ml per batch. The 1L bottle is ideal for weekly family cooking; the 3L or 5L sizes suit frequent cooks or community catering.

Naturally Rich in Vitamins

Like all MagsFood palm oils, Lum is cold-processed and unrefined, preserving its natural Vitamin A and Vitamin E content. It is vegan, gluten-free, and contains no preservatives or artificial additives.

I have been cooking with all the three different

I have been cooking with all the three different palm oil flavours. They taste so good in food. I'll recommend anyday anytime. Thanks for this innovation.

Look no further for your Achu Soup Palm Oil.

I bought Lum and Eposi. Both were excellent choices; Eposi for Koki and Lum for Achu Yellow Soup. Lum has been yielding a smooth brilliant yellow soup unfailingly with balanced consistency. The bright yellow of my Koki with Eposi is impressive. The flavor is guaranteed as well.

Authentic Palm Oil- pure, rich in taste and texture

If you love authentic, rich flavors in your cooking and value nutrition, let me introduce you to something special, the palm oil sisters, Eposi and Lum, produced in Cameroon by MagsFoods.

Both oils shine for their exceptional clarity, vibrant color, and pure, rich taste, and each shines differently depending on the dish you prepare.

Eposi (lighter, silky), I use for my eru and stir-fry spinach to eat with fufu corn (corn masa flour). Its lighter texture coats the vegetables beautifully without weighing the dish down.

Lum (slightly thicker than Eposi),
I use for pottage yams, “sese” plantains, and stir-fry beans. Its slightly thicker consistency blends deeply into these dishes, creating that smooth, comforting depth I crave from African dishes.

As a nutritional scientist, I also appreciate their health benefits. These oils are naturally rich in Vitamin E and beta-carotene, antioxidants that support overall health. They are also considered cholesterol-neutral, making them a smart choice when enjoyed as part of a balanced diet and ideal for those with hypercholesterolemia.

I have thoroughly enjoyed using these palm oils in my cooking! They have actually increased my confidence in using palm oil in cooking African dishes. I have no worry regarding the possibility of any color adulterant being added to my palm oil to enhance its color and flavor.

I am confident in what I get from MagsFood. Authentic palm oil, free of any color additives or adulterants, pure and rich in flavor, taste and antioxidants.

Try these oils, you won’t regret it. Use each for a dish where it is ideal and you will enjoy them. ENJOY!
