The carob tree is widely cultivated, but also still grows wild in eastern Mediterranean areas. Carob trees can survive long periods of drought, but to grow fruit for carob powder, they need 500 to 550 millimeters of rain per year.

Then the carob pods are put into the oven and roasted. After this process, the pods are processed into carob powder.

Delicious substitute for chocolate
Super product and good price. I'm very happy with it because a little bit of cocoa keeps me awake these days. This is healthier for me, and still tastes great. It's delicious frothed with milk in dandelion coffee substitute mocha, and I’m also going to try making bonbons with it. Comparable to cocoa. Pros: Good taste, healthier than cocoa, no caffeine.
