When you try to make conscious choices for your health, it can be difficult to find tasty alternatives to refined and caffeine-rich products. Traditional cocoa often contains stimulants that are not suitable for everyone or at every time of the day, especially when you want to relax or give your children a healthy treat. Our Organic Carob Powder offers the perfect, caffeine-free solution. This mild, naturally sweet powder is rich in essential minerals and vitamins, allowing you to enjoy delicious dishes for the whole family in a responsible way.
Carob powder is made from the dried and ground pods of the carob tree. Unlike cocoa, carob contains no theobromine or caffeine, meaning it has no stimulating effect on the nervous system. This makes it a soothing and mild ingredient that is rich in dietary fibre and essential micronutrients. Thanks to the naturally occurring sugars, it has a soft, sweet taste, meaning you need to add fewer extra sweeteners to your recipes.
