ORGANIC CAROB POWDER, roasted
SKU: C30-025
Hurry up! Sales Ends In
Botanical Name: Ceratonia siliqua
Origin: Portugal
Production: Carob is a flowering evergreen shrub in the pea family. In autumn, the plant blooms small, spirally arranged flowers that are pollinated by wind and insects. The fruit produced is a long legume (pod) that takes a year to develop and ripen. The pod is dried and roasted.
Qualities: Carob is often used as a chocolate-like substitute for cocoa. Perhaps the primary reason for this is that unlike cocoa, carob does not contain theobromine or caffeine, which are both stimulants. Carob is rich in calcium and fibre.
Common Use: Carob is most commonly used in baking recipes and as a replacement for chocolate. The raw carob powder is considered to have a bitter flavour, which is toned down by roasting.
Storage: Store in a cool, dry, dark place in a sealed container.
Safety: We recommend that you consult with a qualified healthcare practitioner before using any herbal products, particularly if you are pregnant, nursing, or on any medications.

In my tea
I make an alternative to a popular tea that has roasted carob and chicory as main ingredients. I haven’t used this product in any other way. I like the flavour in my special tea!
Roasted sweet deliciousness
Very tasty carob powder. Haven't used it in a recipe yet but I plan to make brownies.
Organic Carob Powder
We absolutely love using carob in our deserts & smoothies.
Not the same/regret
I've been buying carob from here for years. Not sure when things changed but it's awful. It's grainy, lacks flavour, and I really wish that I hadn't purchased 5 pounds of it. I used to love using it for hot cocoa. Not even my ninja can smooth it out, and it settles in a goopy sludge at the bottom of my mug. It's so very bland. Much regret.
Good stuff
I'm thoroughly enjoying the Carob Powder I purchased! The taste is delicious and the aroma is wonderful. What's more, the price is unbeatable for the bulk amount I received. I've searched high and low for a better deal, but this one takes the cake. Overall, I'm extremely satisfied with my purchase and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great value
