    Carob powder

    Ceratoria siliqua

    Form: Powder

    Product description

    Carob powder is a fine, dark brown powder with a smooth texture, made from the dried and roasted pods of the carob tree. It has a sweet, chocolate-like aroma and taste. Carob trees are commonly found in Mediterranean regions and western Asia and belong to the Caesalpiniaceae family. The powder contains mucilages, tannins and protein. Carob powder is used as a caffeine-free chocolate substitute in baking, confectionery, and beverages, as well as in dietary products for its natural sweetness and believed nutritional benefits. Carob flour has been used as a thickening agent and for the treatment of diarrhoea.
