It depends how much you want but Lembas stock it.

Somewhere on London road will sell it, you can get dried sea cucumbers on London Road, so Carob powder should be a doddle.

err, what's carob powder, and what's it used for? I'm having a dim day today...

Its a healthier alternative to chocolate - no dairy, low fat etc, good for cooking with but not always great to eat on its own. It looks a lot darker than chocolate and tastes a little different but is yummy anyway.:D

try any independent health food shop.

If/when you find some can you tell us where you got it from :D
I used to use it all the time but the place i got it from closed and i've kinda missed it :(

If you want to buy smaller quantities than they sell in Lembas, try Zeds at Netheredge and "in a nutshell" on chesterfield road. Other than that there is the place at Hunters bar, Wicker Herbal in Town or maybe Holland and Barrats.

no, had a look in holland and barratts and a few places, will check out the other places you mention and let you allknow where im successfuyl, hgave a recipe for chocolate brownies with carob powder you see, so crossed fingers :)

Holland & Barratts had some in yesterday. On the bottom shelves on the right hand side near the flour.

I have no idea why i know that...

thts cool, they didnt have any in the one Iwent in, which one did you go in?

The one in the city centre on Barkers Pool (i think is what the road's called?) Across from evil Gap, anyway. Good luck!

thanks very much :)

If you want to know what carob powder is like wait until it hasn't rained for a few days. Go into your garden and find the dustiest corner. Grub about in the soil until it's all powdery. Take it inside. Eat it. That's what carob is like compared to chocolate.........it's healthier all right because you'd rather do without if that's the only alternative!

riiight.. anyway, back on the subject, found some in holland and barratts, they were shocked when i asked as they had only just got it in and looks as though its really popular. anyway, the brownies are gorgeous!

Thanks for everyones help!
