A naturally sweet alternative to cocoa
Carob powder is obtained from the pods of the evergreen carob tree, a plant traditionally grown in the warm Mediterranean climate.
The ripe pods are dried and finely ground into a smooth brown powder with a naturally sweet taste. Its flavour combines roasted, caramel and cocoa-like notes, making it easy to use in both drinks and desserts.
Carob does not taste exactly like cocoa. It has a milder, naturally sweeter profile that works particularly well in recipes where you want rich flavour without an intensely bitter finish.

Dragon Superfoods Organic Carob Powder contains one ingredient only: organically grown carob.
No flavours, colours, sweeteners or other ingredients are added. The taste, colour and natural sweetness come entirely from the carob pods.

Its fine texture blends well into both liquid and baked recipes, without leaving large pieces or changing the consistency significantly.
Naturally sweet, with no added ingredients

The ingredient list contains no added sugar, syrup or sweetener. Adjust the rest of the recipe according to the sweetness you prefer.
