Production & Sourcing
Dried date paste is typically made by grinding dried dates into a smooth, thick consistency.

The softened dates are then ground or pureed until a smooth, paste-like texture forms.
This paste retains the natural sweetness, rich flavor, and nutritional benefits of dates, making it a versatile and natural sweetening agent in various culinary applications.
