Pitted Dates 1kg Nutrigold

Date palm trees have been cultivated for more than 5,000 years and dates are one of the oldest cultivated fruits. Mostly cultivated in dry areas of Northern Africa and Mediterranean. Nowadays, more than 80% of dates are exported from Iraq, followed by Iran, Saudi Arabia and Egypt being main producers and exporters.

Dates are very sweet (containing 55% of sugar while fresh, becoming much more concentrated when dried), and mixed with water they are perfect sugar substitute.  

Nutrigold pitted dates are excellent natural source of energy. Unlike refined carbohydrates, that level of energy will not drop soon after dates are consumed. All due to the fact that sugar from dates is naturally connected with soluble fibre, therefore sugar release is much slower. 

Suggested use:

Dates can be easily chopped and diced without becoming too mush due to their drier nature. They can be used in bakery foods such as breads, raw cakes and cookies, added to cereals or eaten as a healthy snack. Perfect alternative for artificial sweets.
