Carob Cyrup,
Vegan & Organic
The carob tree, or Ceratonia siliqua, has fruit that looks like a dark brown pea pod, which carries pulp and seeds. Carob is a sweet and healthy substitute for chocolate. Using it for health benefits goes back 4,000 years to ancient Greece. Each carob tree is a single sex, so it takes a male and female tree to produce carob pods. A single male tree can pollinate up to 20 female trees. After six or seven years, a carob tree is able to produce pods.

Healthy Benefits
Adding carob to your diet can provide you with many health benefits. Since carob is naturally high in fiber and has no caffeine, it’s ideal for people with high blood pressure. The low sugar and fat content also makes it a great dietary addition or chocolate substitution for people looking to lose weight. The high levels of vitamins, such as vitamins A and B-2, are good for your skin and eye health.
Additional Benefits
Adding or substituting carob into your diet can help: lower your cholesterol, reduce your risk of heart disease, ease stomach issues, treat diarrhea. Like cocoa, carob contains polyphenols, which are antioxidants known to reduce the risk of heart disease. Adding polyphenol-rich foods such as carob to your diet may help reduce high cholesterol.
Excellent alternative
Carob is an excellent alternative to chocolate, especially if your body has digestive or dietary issues, such as gluten-intolerance. You can use the powder and chips the same way as you would chocolate in almost all recipes. And you can enjoy your favourite sweet treats with fewer calories, fat, and sugar.
