Organic carob powder, derived from the roasted and ground pods of the carob tree, has a rich history dating back to ancient Mediterranean cultures, where it was valued not only as a food source but also for its medicinal properties. Traditionally used as a chocolate substitute, carob is naturally sweet, caffeine-free, and packed with dietary fiber, vitamins, and minerals.
 
Benefits: Carob powder is high in antioxidants and low in fat, making it a healthier alternative to cocoa. It can help regulate blood sugar levels, support digestive health, and provide a sustainable energy boost without the jitters associated with caffeine.
 
How to Use: Incorporate carob powder into your diet by adding it to smoothies, baked goods, oatmeal, or yogurt. It’s also delicious in energy bars or as a hot beverage mixed with milk or plant-based alternatives. With its unique flavor profile, carob can enhance both sweet and savory dishes, making it a versatile pantry staple. You can substitute carob 1:1 of cacao.
