Carob Chip

• Add carob chips to cookies and muffins for a naturally sweet and slightly nutty flavor in place of chocolate chips, creating a healthier baked treat.

• Use carob chips in recipes for brownies or cakes as a caffeine-free alternative to cocoa powder or chocolate, providing a slightly different flavor profile.
• Mix carob chips into pancakes or waffles for a subtle sweetness and added texture, making breakfast more exciting and nutritious.
• Sprinkle carob chips over yogurt or oatmeal for a healthy and satisfying topping, adding both sweetness and a hint of caramel flavor.

• Rich in antioxidants that help protect against cell damage and inflammation.
• A good source of fiber, promoting digestive health and regularity.
• Naturally sweet with a lower sugar content than chocolate, making it a healthier alternative.
• Contains essential minerals like calcium, potassium, and copper.
• May help lower cholesterol levels due to its fiber content.

Carob chips should be stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry, and dark place to prevent them from absorbing moisture and odors. A pantry or cupboard away from heat sources is ideal. If properly stored, carob chips can maintain their quality for up to a year. Avoid refrigerating or freezing unless you live in a very hot and humid climate, as temperature fluctuations can cause them to bloom (develop a white coating) without affecting their edibility.
