Discover the natural goodness of wild carob powder, a versatile and nutritious superfood sourced from the sun-drenched landscapes of Cyprus. Grown on the island’s ancient carob trees, this powder is made by lightly roasting and grinding the pods of the carob plant on the same day, resulting in a fine, chocolatey powder that is naturally sweet and caffeine-free. Nothing added, and can be enjoyed by your pet too since carob powder, unlike cocoa is free from theobromine.
Carob powder is a rich source of essential nutrients, making it an excellent addition to your diet. It is high in dietary fibre, which supports healthy digestion and helps maintain a feeling of fullness, making it ideal for those looking to manage their weight. Packed with antioxidants, carob powder aids in fighting oxidative stress and supports overall well-being. Additionally, it is a good source of calcium, potassium, and magnesium, which are vital for maintaining strong bones and cardiovascular health.
This versatile ingredient can be used as a natural sweetener and a healthy alternative to cocoa powder in a variety of recipes. Add it to smoothies, baked goods, and desserts for a subtle, sweet flavour, or mix it into your morning porridge for an extra nutritional boost. With its unique taste and numerous health benefits, wild carob powder from Cyprus is a delicious way to enhance your everyday meals.
Carob trees have been grown in Cyprus since antiquity. They were known all over the world for their top quality and were once called the “black gold” of Cyprus. They still grow wild all over the island. Mellona craft totally natural delicacies from the island of Cyprus, including their signature raw honey, organic olive oil and carob products

Cyprus is a small island, but it shapes its food in a unique way. Strong sun, dry soil, and a constant sea breeze. Ingredients don’t grow easily, but when they do, they carry depth, character, and are dense in essential nutrients.
Honey was at the centre of it. Not just as a product, but as something alive, complex and already complete in its natural form. We don’t try to change that. We build on it. By combining raw honey with natural, unprocessed ingredients, superfoods, superfruits, herbs, and spices, we enhance what is already there, adding layers of flavour and nutritional value without taking anything away.
That’s where our belief comes from; food, when left unprocessed and as nature intended, serves its original purpose better, nourishing the body with what it actually needs to live a healthy, balanced, and happy life. We believe food doesn’t need to be engineered, it needs to be respected. We don’t heat our honey. We don’t strip ingredients down. We don’t alter their natural structure.
We continue to work close to the land, using real ingredients from our region, respecting their nature, and keeping our processes as minimal as possible. We’re not trying to reinvent food. We’re simply trying to keep it real.
