    The come from different plants completely. One comes from the cocoa bean and I think that carob is a root.
    I made chocolate yesterday with cashews and soaked gogi berries. Nice.

    I use it for ice cream, with agave and it tastes like fudge. It can be used in all sorts of desserts like the ones you mentioned.
