Description
Raw Organic Peruvian Carob – Naturally Sweet & Mineral-Rich
Peruvian carob is a naturally sweet, mineral-rich powder made from the dried pods of a South American leguminous tree. It has a light brown colour and a warm, caramel-like flavour that makes it a beautiful, low-glycaemic alternative to refined sweeteners.
It’s very similar in taste and texture to mesquite, and often used in the same way.
Peruvian carob is rich in:
- Calcium and magnesium – to support bones and the nervous system
- Potassium – for electrolyte balance and heart health
- Iron – to support energy levels and oxygen transport
- Dietary fibre – to support digestion and healthy blood sugar balance
This is a naturally grounding, nourishing food that brings both flavour and function to your creations. Our Peruvian carob is 100% raw, organic, and vegan — gently processed to preserve its full nutritional integrity.

Great taste and usually a
"Great taste and usually a fantastic product in general, one that even produces quite a mellow state, but this time the quality wasn’t what it normally is and had quite large dried clumps in it. A partial refund was given as it was fine otherwise. Carob has such a great taste and this one is more lighter and almost vanilla/lacuma like in taste."
High vibe!
"I love this! I find it gives me a bit of a high, and definitely works beautifully with cacao! I use it as 'mesquite', even though it is technically 'Peruvian Carob'! Yum yum! The quality is beautiful, like all Raw Living's offerings, and the taste is great!"
This carob as a delicious
"This carob as a delicious taste. the family enjoy it with hot plant base milk, with a little natural sweetener. also in deserts. The quality, is much superior to other carob that I have taste. A friend tasted some with hot milk, and purchased a packet from this store. lovely xx"
I bought this to use
"I bought this to use in place of mesquite in a couple of chocolate recipes from The Magic Kitchen (New Jamacia and Deviation Chocolate) and it is delicous! Really great quality. Would definitely buy again."
My first time using Peruvian
"My first time using Peruvian Carob and I think it is absolutely delicious. I use it in smoothies and anything else that I want sweetened up a little, however not too much. I'm thrilled with this carob and look forward to trying the Mediterranian one next."
Works well as a sweetener.

Love it!
"Absolutely beautiful product! I'm completely new to carob powder and whilst it tastes nothing like chocolate, I love the flavour and I've really missed it since running out (The first bag lasted ages, but I need to order a second packet soon!). I use this in my breakfast smoothies, and a little bit goes a really long way."

"This carob powder is very sweet and delicious. A little goes a long way for flavour. I'm not usually a carob fan but this is much lighter and I prefer it to the taste of roasted carob."
