Banana and carob smoothie

May 7, 2026

This smoothie is the perfect, healthy alternative to conventional chocolate shakes. Carob provides a naturally sweet flavor reminiscent of cocoa, but with a very low fat content and a high fiber density. When combined with banana, we get a creamy, highly energizing drink. Thanks to Stevia 1:8 de Castelló, we adjust the sweetness without calories, while Bonsalt 0% and Cremor Tártaro ensure mineral stability and a professional texture free of sodium

Detailed Description (Procedure)

Fruit Preparation: Peel the bananas. They should be ripe (with black specks on the skin) so they provide maximum creaminess and natural sweetness.
Loading the Blender: Add the chopped bananas and carob flour to the blender.
Technical Addition: Add the milk or plant-based drink, the Stevia 1:8, the pinch of Bonsalt 0% Sodium and the Cremor Tártaro. Castelló Cremor Tártaro helps the carob flour fully hydrate, preventing lumps and achieving a much finer, more stable emulsion.
Blending: Blend at maximum power for 60 seconds until you get a frothy, deep brown mixture.
Serving: Serve cold in tall glasses. You can sprinkle a little extra carob on top for decoration.

Chef's Secrets

Sweetness Boost: The pinch of Bonsalt 0% is the technical secret for reducing the slight bitterness that pure carob can have, making the smoothie taste much sweeter and smoother on the palate.
American-Style Smoothie Texture: If you want a thicker texture, use frozen bananas. The Cremor Tártaro will help maintain that "ice cream-like" density for longer without quickly turning it into liquid.

Healthy and delicious!

This smoothie proves that you can enjoy a chocolate-like flavor with a far superior nutritional profile. With the technical guarantee of Castelló products, every sip is a step toward well-being.
