About Candies, carob, unsweetened
Unsweetened carob candy uses carob powder - a naturally sweet legume-derived ingredient - in place of cacao. Even without added sugar the carbohydrate content is high from carob's inherent sugars, and fat from whatever oil or butter base is used is substantial. Protein and fiber are better than in most candy, which is one reason carob is sometimes marketed as a cocoa alternative. The flavor is earthy and sweet but distinct from chocolate, and people who expect it to taste like cocoa are usually disappointed.
