Product Review

100% organic, pitted deglet noor dates are solar dried at a low temperature and ground to a sugar consistency to produce the concentrated sweet, caramel flavor that make dates beloved the world over. Delicious when added to baked goods, date sugar can replace some or all of cane sugar or any other sweetener called for in a recipe. Don't expect them to dissolve in liquid though; they arenÕt soluble like sugar. Instead they contain fiber, which is highly beneficial for your digestion and elimination. Dates have a lower glycemic index than cane sugar due to its fiber slowing down the absorption of its complex carbohyrates in the intestines. If youÕre motivated to cut down on sugar, dates are the perfect way to wean your taste buds off of excessive sweetness. With their potassium and calcium content along with trace minerals, vitamins and free radical-fighting polyphenols, dates are a nutrient-dense food that provide you with more than just sweet pleasure!
