Organic Carob Powder - a Healthy and Tasty Substitute for Chocolate

• 100% Raw
• Substitute for Chocolate
• High in Dietary Fiber

Our organic carob powder from Spain comes from organically grown, fermented, and sun-dried carob pods under tropical ambient temperature below 46°C for several days. This process ensures that all valuable nutrients in the carob pods are retained. Naturally sweet, carob powder is derived from the fruit of the carob tree. The fermentation process is a key step in developing the classic aroma and flavor of carob. Due to its high concentration of natural sugar, carob powder can be used to sweeten drinks, desserts, yogurt, and smoothies.

Organic Carob Powder from Kiki Health is a high-quality food rich in flavor and nutrition. This powder is 100% raw, meaning it has not been treated with high temperatures or chemicals. Additionally, it is naturally sweet and an excellent substitute for chocolate. Carob powder is also a rich source of dietary fiber, which helps regulate digestion and promote healthy gut function. This makes carob powder an ideal ingredient for those seeking a healthy and balanced diet.

How is Kiki Health's Organic Carob Powder Made?

Carob powder is made from the fruit of the carob tree, a dense shrub originally from the Mediterranean region. Kiki Health's organic carob powder comes from Spain, where the carob plantations are naturally protected from chemical pesticides. Once the carob pods are harvested, they are fermented for several days at a temperature below 46°C. They are then sun-dried to retain all the essential nutrients. This gives Kiki Health's organic carob powder a unique taste and aroma characteristic of naturally produced foods.
