CAROBOU'S certified organic, non-GMO roasted carob powder 2.2lb. is milled very fine which makes it perfect for home baking or manufacturing food products.

CAROBOU'S range of Australian carob products is made from new generation carob pods grown on sweet carob trees selectively chosen for their thick, rich, luscious pods — not for the seeds.

Australian organic carob powders are the sweetest in the global market without the strong bitter taste normally associated with European and or Mediterranean carobs. This is the difference between old generation carobs and new generation Australian carobs. Use 1:1 in place of cacao or cocoa as directed in any recipe calling for carob.

It was carob pods – rather than locusts grasshopper that sustained John the Baptist while he lived in the wilderness preparing the way for the Messiah. Ceratonia siliqua, commonly known as the carob tree (from Arabic خَرُّوبٌ kharrūb and Hebrew חרוב haruv), St. John's-bread, or locust bean or simply locust-tree, is a species of flowering evergreen shrub or tree in the pea family, Fabaceae. It is widely cultivated for its edible pods, and as an ornamental tree in gardens. The ripe, dried pod is often ground into carob powder, which is used to replace cocoa-cacao powder.
