Wonderfully, sweet and soft organic Medjool dates. They are also known as the king of dates and are large, plump and soft and taste like sticky toffee pudding. They dry out faster in the cupboard, so they are best stored in the fridge or freezer so they will stay fresh for months.

They are high in nutrients 50% more potassium by weight than a banana! Due to the high fibre content, they release sugar slowly which makes them great for giving you sustained energy through the day. They are a great substitute for sugar in desserts and are often blended with cashew or walnuts for making energy bars or for making a cake base.

If you see them with white stuff on them, that's just the natural sugar crystalising and they're completely fine to eat. They are usually firmer at this stage, so you can wrap them in a damp paper towel and microwave for 5 seconds which will plum them up and the date will absorb the sugar back into it.

These are a firm favourite at the farm.
