CAROB POWDER - 12 OZ

Now Real Food Carob Powder

Carob powder is a versatile, flavorful substitute for chocolate. It can be used in place of cocoa powder in your favorite recipes, providing delicious chocolate flavor without the fat, caffeine, or theobromine found in chocolate. This carob powder is dry roasted and contains no additives. It is also sugar free and made in the USA.

Taste Test

I was intrigued by the idea of carob powder as a chocolate substitute, so I decided to put it to the test. I made a batch of brownies using carob powder in place of cocoa powder and was pleasantly surprised by the results. The brownies had a rich, chocolatey flavor that was not overwhelmed by sweetness. They were also very moist and fudgy, which is my favorite type of brownie. Overall, I was impressed with the flavor of the carob powder and would definitely use it again in place of cocoa powder.

Versatility

In addition to using carob powder in baked goods, it can also be used to make hot chocolate, pudding, frosting, and more. I haven’t had a chance to experiment with it much beyond brownies, but I’m looking forward to trying it in other recipes. Based on my experience with the brownies, I think the carob powder will be a versatile and delicious addition to many different recipes.

If you’re looking for a chocolate substitute that is flavorful and versatile, give NOW Real Food carob powder a try. I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised by how well it performs in recipes.

Suggested Usage: Carob isn’t as rich as chocolate but it’s actually sweeter. When cooking with carob, substitute 1.5 to 2 parts carob powder for every 1 part cocoa powder called for in a recipe. Due to carob powder’s sweetness you may need to decrease the amount of sugar used.
