Product Description
Date Powder (also known as date sugar) is a natural sweetener produced from 100% organic dates through sorting, pitting, drying, grinding, and sieving. It is a fine, free-flowing powder with a naturally sweet taste and a characteristic date aroma.
The product is designed as a natural sweetener and functional ingredient for food, beverage, and dietary supplement applications. It is valued by formulators as a clean-label alternative to refined sugar, providing sweetness without refined sugar, with naturally occurring fructose and glucose, and compatibility with a wide range of food processing conditions.
