Date paste in organic quality from NaraFood

Our date pastes are compact, soft masses made from 100% dates. The dates are first pitted and then pureed. In this form, the fine, natural sweetness of the date can be used wonderfully in all kinds of creations in the kitchen. In addition to a wide range of fresh dates, specialties and date products in organic quality, you can now also buy two different varieties of date paste online from us:

• Paste made from 100% Mazati dates (9 kg bucket)
• Paste made from 100% Sukkari dates (5 kg bag)

Both from certified organic cultivation, without additives.

No added sugar - no preservatives - no artificial flavors - soft, marzipan-like consistency

Fine consistency and aromatic sweetness

Our date pastes are each made from 100% organic dates of a single variety: Mazati or Sukkari. Both varieties naturally have a very soft, creamy flesh with a fine fiber structure and are therefore particularly suitable for making pastes. They do not need to be soaked, but can be processed directly after pitting.

This produces a very soft, easy-to-process paste with a fine consistency. The texture is reminiscent of marzipan or shortcrust pastry - compact yet soft. Each variety has its own unique taste:

• Mazati: particularly intense, spicy and aromatic
• Sukkari: mildly caramel and velvety sweet

Both varieties are wonderful to work with and add a special depth to baked goods, creams or snacks.

Date paste: a versatile source of energy and sweetener

Dates contain a lot of fiber and a wide range of nutrients, vitamins and minerals - including potassium, magnesium, iron and folic acid. They are a valuable source of energy for the body and, thanks to their natural sweetness, can replace conventional sugar in many recipes.

As the whole fruit is used for the date paste, all the valuable nutrients are retained. Date paste is therefore an excellent, wholesome alternative to sugar for baking and cooking. Its fine-fiber structure makes it easy to incorporate into doughs, sauces, spreads and other preparations.

What can date paste be used for?

Date paste has an extremely wide range of uses. Thanks to its compact, soft consistency, it is particularly easy to process. Here are a few ideas:

• Seasoning sauces with a sweet oriental note
• Homemade chutneys and fruit spreads
• Filling for mamoul cookies
• In cream cheese dips (e.g. curry-date-parsley)
• For raw delicacies such as energy balls, fruit slices or date pralines
• As a base for date creams and spreads

We also use the date pastes for our own date creations in a jar:
In combination with coconut oil, for example, we create our date coconut cream with a delicate melt. In the date chocolate cream, the fruity sweetness of the paste provides a harmonious counterbalance to the bitter cocoa. For our date paste, the paste is whipped with water to create a wonderfully airy, spreadable consistency.

What is the shelf life of the date paste?

Our date pastes are available in larger containers - the mazati paste in a 9 kg bucket, the sukkari paste in a 5 kg bag. Both variants can be stored for several months - preferably in a cool, dry place. If you regularly work with natural sweeteners or like to make energy balls, bars or chocolates, it is a good idea to stock up.

We also have a number of other date products in our range, especially for further processing in the kitchen, most of which we also offer in smaller container sizes. For example, date sugar, pitted Mazati and Sayer dates or date syrup.
