Carob is a completely natural product without any treatment, it is the fruit of the carob tree (Ceratonia siliqua), a tree native to the Mediterranean region. Its fruit is an elongated pod, dark brown in color when ripe, containing a sweet and nutritious pulp, as well as hard seeds. Carob has a flavor similar to cocoa, making it a natural and healthy alternative to chocolate.
Origin:
Carob trees are mainly cultivated in Mediterranean countries such as Spain, Italy, Morocco, and Greece, with Spain being one of the main producers, especially in Catalonia, Valencia, and the Balearic Islands.
Uses and obtaining carob powder:
To obtain carob powder or flour, only the pulp of the mature pod is used. The process involves harvesting the pods, removing the seeds, drying and grinding the pods to obtain a fine and sweet powder. This powder is used as a substitute for cocoa in dessert recipes, smoothies, cakes, and bakery products. It is also available in the form of syrups and flours for food preparation.

Carob seeds, known as locust bean, are also used in the cosmetics industry. A gum called carob gum is extracted from them, which is used in personal care products such as lotions, creams, and shampoos. This gum is highly moisturizing and helps retain moisture, making it ideal for products designed for dry and sensitive skin, as well as providing a soft and homogeneous texture to cosmetic formulations.
