Look Out For The Baobab

Baobab - remember the name, because it’s a fruit that has just been approved for use in the EU. It has actually been consumed for thousands of years in its native Africa, and now we can give it a go too.

It has a very tough skin - some say as hard as a nut - and contains a powdery fruit inside which is packed with vitamin C, calcium and antioxidants Don’t expect to see it at the supermarket just yet - its not easily edible itself but has been approved for use as an ingredient in juices, smoothies and cereal bars initially.
