Date Paste
Date paste is a natural product made from ripe and high-quality Sayer dates. It’s a healthy and organic substitute for refined sugar, and it can be used as an ingredient in many sugar-free recipes. It contains all the nutrients and antioxidants of the date fruit itself, but its tender and flowy texture allow it to blend perfectly with other ingredients in cookies, smoothies, desserts, and other snacks.
