What it is

Organic date paste is made from whole, dried dates that have been pitted and pureed. Dates are fruits that grow on date palm trees, primarily in the Middle East and North Africa. The paste is a natural sweetener and binder.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use date paste as a natural sweetener and to add moisture and texture to foods. It is often found in baked goods like cookies and cakes, as well as in energy bars and some baby foods.

Health notes

Date paste is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of natural sugars, fiber, and some minerals. The Joint FAO/WHO Expert Committee on Food Additives (JECFA) has evaluated date paste, but did not set a numeric acceptable daily intake (ADI). Due to its natural sugar content, excessive consumption could contribute to high sugar intake.

Allergen info

Date paste is not derived from any of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It does not contain gluten.
