Carob Powder (Sold In Bulk)

Carob powder is a brown powder made from the dried pods of the carob tree (Ceratonia siliqua), which is native to the Mediterranean region. It's often used as a substitute for cocoa powder in recipes because it has a similar texture and color, but without the caffeine and theobromine that are found in chocolate. Carob powder has a naturally sweet flavor, so it often requires less added sugar when used in baking or cooking. It's also a popular ingredient in vegan and gluten-free recipes due to its versatility and health benefits.

Some potential benefits of carob powder include:

• High in fiber: It can help support digestion.
• Rich in antioxidants: Carob contains polyphenols that can help protect against free radical damage.
• Low in fat: It’s a good option for those looking to reduce fat intake.
• Caffeine-free: A great choice for those sensitive to caffeine.
• Contains essential nutrients: It’s a source of calcium, potassium, and iron.

It’s commonly found in products like carob chips, carob bars, and even as a drink mix.
