Baobab has more vitamin C than oranges, twice as much calcium as milk and tons of magnesium. This powdery pulp is use in smoothies, juices, nutrition bars, baked goods and countless other foods. And since the fruit has a high pectin content (around 25%) its offers the benefit of being a natural thickening and binding agent. As for the taste, a whole continent of people can't be wrong. With its sweet, tangy, and pear-like flavor profile, the baobab has been consumed for hundreds of years by locals. And it's not just the fruit that makes for tasty grub in the form of sauces and porridges and a refreshing lemonade-type beverage when combined with water and sugar, the leaves are pounded to form a kind of relish, and seeds are roasted, ground and treated like coffee.
