Date Paste

Ohhhh sweet sweet suga

We all love it. It’s like crack to the brain, literally. Sometimes I cut out sweets just to break the cycle - but I’m a chocolate lover so that doesn’t last long😛

There are so many options to sweeten up your life. Some pack a healthier punch than others.

I LOVE dates. These caramel dried fruits are loaded with vitamins, minerals and fiber. They are a great alternative to refined and processed sweeteners that don’t provide much more than flavor. They are high in vitamin B5 which helps to nourish the adrenal glands and support healthy blood lipids. They help supply the body with natural energy while being balanced with fiber so your blood sugar doesn’t spike. The fiber also helps to move digestion and keep your 💩 regular.

Date paste is the perfect sweetener for baking!
