Are Carob Chips Caffeine Free

Unlike chocolate, carob is naturally sweet, low in fat, high in fiber, has calcium, and most importantly to me, no caffeine.

Do carob chips have caffeine?

Perhaps the primary benefit of carob as a chocolate substitute is that, unlike cocoa, carob contains no caffeine or theobromine.

What is a carob chip made of?

Carob chips are made with carob powder and have an earthy, cocoa-like flavor that’s more mellow than chocolate. Carob powder comes from the pod of the Mediterranean carob tree. The pod is seeded, then the fruit pulp is dried, roasted, and ground to a fine powder.
