Ingredients: Organic Irish Moss Poweder (chondrus crispus)
Origin: Canada
Irish Moss is a seaweed that is high in polysacchrides & particularly high in Carageenan. This means that when used in recipes like a raw cheesecake filling it slows the absorption of energy enabling a slow release of energy so your slice of raw cheesecake keeps you going for longer.
Irish Moss powder is easy to use & has no discernable flavour so it won't affect the flavours you are using in your raw superfood creations.
