The process of going from a handmade product to mass production has been a long and windy road that we are still traveling on... so it is with my deepest regret that we cannot fill your order at this time.

We're doing the best we can with the resources we have to focus on mass production as soon as possible, so all orders are on hold... indefinitely.

Once we're mass produced, the Carobelles will be easily available everywhere... until then, thank you for motivating us to get there as fast as possible!

The Carobelles have always stood for the freedom to honor yourself with the very best and the benefits that being a Conscious Gourmet adds to your life, your family, and your community... so naturally, we are eager to spread them far and wide so people everywhere may enjoy them too.

Rest assured that stores will eventually carry the Carobelles. Contact us so we can keep you updated.

Thank you for your love, support, and patience through this process!

are soaked in filtered water for 8 to 12 hours in order for them to germinate thus improving their digestibility and nutrition profile while removing the almond's harmful tannic acid and enzyme inhibitors. After soaking, the almonds are immediately dehydrated at 95°F/35°C for 48 hours. The organic raw Almonds in the Carobelles are distributed by Natures Best and come from Baugher Ranch Organics in Artois, CA. We do not purchase anything from Paramount Farms who sell non-organic packaged raw almonds under the brand names Kirkland Signature, Sunkist, and Trader Joe's.

First of all, relax and settle down (you know who you are)!

Calories are energy units... and, not all calories are created equal. The reason the Carobelles are so good is because most of the calories come from fat... that's right, you hear me loud and clear... I said fat.

Now, rest assured that not all fats are created equal either ... there is a HUGE difference between the fried fat (or calories) in a highly processed high cholesterol red meat product like a Big Mac and a raw organic minimally processed zero-cholesterol coconut oil Carobelle... in fact, coconut oil is one of the richest source of CLA, which body builders take to reduce their body fat for competition because it revs up metabolism and convinces your body to burn fat instead of sugar.

Ingredients: raw organic Coconut Oil, raw organic Agave Syrup, pesticide-free Carob, Sea Salt, and Love.
Pronunciation: carob (from the carob pod) + belle (pronounced bell because they look like bells and it means beauty in French) + s (plural) = Carobelles
Appearance: brown (carob) and white or gray (coconut)
Addiction: Your body wants good nourishment so you may need better fats (raw organic coconut oil, avocados, cold-pressed olive oil), better sugars (agave, raw honey, xylotol), more antioxidants and enzymes (raw fruits & veggies with dark pigmentation), or your body may need to detox (not always fun yet necessary). What ever the cause, the Carobelles will help. They also tame a sweet-tooth and chocolate addictions with food your body uses as fuel.

There are many varieties of live and raw foods depending on whether it includes dehydrating, fermenting, sprouting, if it is vegan, or includes animal products such as the Primal Diet.

Macarena Bianchi's mission is to awaken, brighten, and empower people globally to freely feel bliss through food, health, fitness, books, motion pictures, and more. As a busy consumer, finding fresh live foods made from pristine ingredients that we combined consciously was challenging, plus having to sacrifice flavor for nourishment eventually got on her nerves. When she had to make changes for the sake of her health, she was told to give up chocolate because of its caffeine and sugar. Of course, that was out of the question! With the help of her Health Guru and now ex-husband Sifu Marcus Lovemore, they developed the Carobelles for purely selfish reasons. Her colleagues and family where stunned when she replied, "I made it" after they asked where she bought all her yummy healthy treats. At the same time, her dear friend and Master Raw Chef Rawsheed encouraged her to launch a food line. It was coming from every angle so after finding no chocolate alternatives, and discovering the incredible benefits of their ingredients, she decided to share them with the world as a public service. So in March 2004, Rawbalance was born with the help of her sister Paz Fernandez and the support and sponsorship from many dear friends.

Rawbalance plays with and combines the purest ingredients available to deliver the most flavor, enzymes, nutrients, and health benefits per bite.

You may have a received a reusable earth friendly ice-pack from an event or a gift box. If the ice-pack shrinks, soak it in water until it expands and freeze it. You can use it to travel with your Carobelles or take them to the movies.

One year. We only use the highest quality coconut oil, a natural preservative with a shelf life of 3 years. The Carobelles will not spoil even if they melt. Their melting point is above room temperature 76°F/24°C because cool temperature binds our pure ingredients. Store your Carobelles in the refrigerator (smooth) or freezer (invigorating) depending on your preference. Should they ever melt, place them in the freezer for at least 20 minutes and enjoy a one of a kind Carobelle Bar.
