Medjoul Dates<br />

In the world of dates, Medjoul Dates are known as a superior and unique confection, and were once exclusively reserved for royalty and their<br />

guests. They are special because they can grow only in a very few areas in the world (California, Mexico, the Jordan Valley and some parts of<br />

Africa) and because they have the ability to naturally grow larger while maintaining a rich taste and an enjoyable texture. While there have been<br />

attempts to cultivate Medjoul date palms in different parts of the world, the crop has not yet delivered the special quality and taste criteria<br />

for which Medjoul dates are favored.<br />

Most consumers associate Medjoul dates with the widely known soft Jumbo dates (extremely large size with soft flesh), while only a few know<br />

that this date variety is also available in various sizes, softness, and appearance, offering delicious alternatives that are in line with the different<br />

consumer preferences and uses.<br />

Medjoul dates are energy dense with a juicy, fleshy and Chewy texture. Full of natural sugars, mostly in the form of glucose and fructose, they<br />

represent a healthy and highly energizing snack choice.<br />
