Carob molasses (keciboynuzu pekmezi) is one of the oldest sweeteners of the Mediterranean kitchen, made from the pods of the carob tree — a fruit so tied to the region that the English word "carob" comes from its Arabic name, kharrub. This 300g jar from Toprak Dogal is made in Antalya, on Turkey's Mediterranean coast, where carob trees grow naturally and the pods are harvested in season by local producers.
The ingredient list is one line: 100% carob. No added sugar, no preservatives, no colorants. The pods are ground in stone mills, soaked in water for 8 to 12 hours, filtered, then reduced at low temperature under high pressure until the molasses reaches its dark, pourable consistency — the cold-pressed (soguk sikim) method that keeps the fruit's character intact. All the sweetness you taste is the carob's own natural fruit sugar.
In Turkish homes, carob molasses is a winter staple. The classic way to eat it is tahin-pekmez: stirred into tahini and spread on warm bread at breakfast. It also goes over yogurt, into milk or cold water as a quick drink, drizzled on porridge or ice cream, or straight from the spoon. Bakers use it in place of refined sugar in cakes and cookies, where it adds a deep, slightly cocoa-like flavor without any chocolate.
