Production & Sourcing
Unpitted dried dates are made by harvesting ripe dates from palm trees. Once harvested, they undergo a series of cleaning processes to remove debris and impurities. Then, they’re sorted and may be pre-treated to maintain color and quality. The dates undergo dehydration through various methods like sun-drying or mechanical drying. During this process, excess moisture is removed gradually, preserving their natural sweetness and creating the final product of plump, soft, and naturally sweet unpitted dried dates ready for consumption or further processing.
