Carob powder is a natural product obtained from the fruit of the carob tree (Ceratonia siliqua), processed by cleaning, crushing, roasting and grinding. The raw material is a loose, dark brown powder with a pleasant taste and aroma reminiscent of cocoa and coffee notes.
Carob powder is distinguished by its high dietary fibre content (~60%) and low fat content. Thanks to its natural origin, absence of GMOs and allergens, and mild taste, it is safe and well tolerated in functional foods and foods for children.
