Ingredient Spotlight: Baobab

Remember The Lion King, the monkey who used to reside in a tree? a huge, ancient significant tree from which the red fruit is plucked? It is Baobab! Now you know, it?s presence dates back to centuries and is considered to be an important species in the world of flora. Baobab is a very amusing plant found majorly in Africa, Australia and South Asia. It is rich in antioxidants, vitamins and minerals and is most famously called ?The Tree of Life.? The reason why it is called that is because it stores water in its trunk in the monsoon, gets swollen, and then utilizes that same water in extreme dry and arid weather conditions to develop fruits which are densely and extraordinarily rich in nutrients.
