Carob Kibble

Carob kibble is the raw, kibbled pod of the carob tree (Ceratonia siliqua), broken into chunky, naturally sweet pieces with a mellow, cocoa-like character. Grown here in Australia and certified organic with no added sugar, it can be simmered into a naturally sweet, caffeine-free tea, snacked on straight from the bag, or ground into your own fresh carob powder. Key Benefits Australian grown and certified organic: 100% Australian organic carob, grown and kibbled here. Caffeine-free by nature: carob contains no caffeine and no theobromine, unlike cocoa, so it suits afternoon and evening use. Naturally sweet, no added sugar: the pods are sweet straight from the tree, with around 51 grams of natural sugars per 100 grams and nothing added. High in fibre: naturally high in dietary fibre at around 26 grams per 100 grams. Free from gluten, dairy and nuts, and non-GMO: a simple, single-ingredient food that suits many dietary needs. How to Use Carob tea: Simmer 2 teaspoons of kibble in 1.5 cups of water for 10 to 15 minutes, then strain for a naturally sweet, caffeine-free brew. For a fuller coffee-style cup, simmer it alongside Roasted Dandelion Root or Roasted Chicory Root. Snack or bake: Eat the pieces as a chewy, sweet snack or add them to trail mix. To make your own powder, grind the kibble in a spice grinder or high-speed blender and use it one-to-one in place of cocoa in baking. Prefer it ready-ground? Our Carob Powder Roasted is roasted carob, milled smooth for drinks and baking. Good to Know Carob has been grown around the Mediterranean for thousands of years, and its remarkably even seeds were once used by traders as counterweights for gold and gems, giving us the word carat. Because it contains none of the caffeine or theobromine found in cocoa, carob is a popular chocolate stand-in for homemade dog treats. Store the kibble sealed in a cool, dark place, where it will keep for many months. May contain the occasional seed. This information is not a substitute for medical advice.
