How can I use your products in recipes?
This really depends on the type of recipe. For certain items, such as baked goods, you might replace 1 cup of sugar with 3/4 cup Date Syrup and decrease any liquid called for in the recipe by 25%. Really, it just takes some experimenting. We always encourage folks to go to our RECIPES page to get an idea of how it can be used in recipes. We recommend using date sugar to replace the total amount of sugar called for in a recipe. However, since date sugar is made from the whole date and contains fiber, it has a tendency to absorb liquid. We recommend you try decreasing the flour called for in your recipe by 25%. We always encourage folks to go to our recipe page to get an idea of how it can be used. You can also learn how to substitute dates in your recipes by reading this article.

Why is the color of your original date syrup reddish?
The color of date syrup is dependent on the variety of dates that are used and the process used to make it. There are hundreds of different varieties of dates grown in the world. Different countries tend to use different varieties for syrup and many countries use quite a lot of different varieties together to produce one syrup. The dates and process we use to produce our original syrup yields a slight reddish tint. Most syrups you find in the US (with the exception of ours) use Medjool which provides a much darker syrup and more of a molasses flavor profile.
Why is a date company located in Missouri?
We are a family-owned company born and bred in the beautiful Ozarks. At one time however, we lived in the Middle East and became addicted to the good things that flow from the date palm. We’ve been enjoying those things for years now and would pretty much think of ourselves the date aficionados this side of Cali.
It looks like the coconut date sauce I ordered has separated. What should I do?
We take pride in our products and make them with care, using no additives or preservatives. Because of this, it is normal for separation to sometimes occur. If this happens, just stir and enjoy! This product should be refrigerated after opening. Thank you so much for supporting our small business.
What are the ingredients in your date syrup?
100% organic dates. No additives, no nothin’ else.
Do you make the date syrup yourself?
Our date syrup is imported from our friends who have been making fruit syrup for over 100 years! (It's their jam! :)) We would absolutely love to make it all in the US, but there are some limitations involved. The United States produces less than 2% of the world's dates and because of this, the date cultivar we use to give our syrup the caramel-y, luxurious texture has been hard to source for ingredient purposes. Even the California date farms often import dates to fulfill the demand. The good news is that thousands more acres of date palms have been planted in the US since we started in 2012 and those trees are now starting to bear fruit.
A majority of our products are bottled, labeled and packaged by our own team at our facility in Springfield, Missouri. Many of those products are made from scratch in our large kettles with super sized kitchen tools, and lots of love and muscle! Have you tried our chocolate spread, coconut date sauce, bbq and sweet chili sauce? All made by hand in our kitchen! Our seasonal fruitcake is made from scratch as well in a separate kitchen in our Missouri facility to keep our main processing room free of nuts.
Do you ship internationally?
Sorry, we do not currently ship internationally! But iHerb.com, which carries some of our products does!
From where are your dates sourced?
We currently source our dates from California, North Africa and the Arabian Peninsula.
What kind of dates do you use in your syrup?
We use deglet noor dates in our syrup, making for a smooth, consistent, and rich flavor!
