Delicious, healthy sweetener!
By B. Ruiz
I love this date sugar! Not sticky at all, quite tasty and works perfectly in baking. Date sugar doesn't dissolve in liquids, however, so it's not for use in drinks or recipes that require melted sugar. Great stuff!

By E. Kerby
I ordered this date sugar because I had a recipe for GAPS-legal brownies that called for 2 3/4 c. date sugar. The first time I made the recipe I bought dates and put them in my food processor--I didn't realize you're supposed to dry them in the dehydrator first! So I ended up with a huge sticky ball of very sticky date "sugar" that I used. Some portions of the date got stuck in the sticky, sticky ball of stickiness without totally being blended so I got little chunks of date in my brownies. I had trouble blending the sticky date ball with the butter and cocoa, and it was tough to mix into the rest of the recipe. It wasn't the end of the world, and the brownies were good, but the texture was a little off.SO, I ordered this date sugar and I've made the brownies again. Holy smokes, it was so much easier! Instead of buying this date sugar, you COULD buy a bunch of dates, dry them out in a dehydrator, and put them in a food processor. I won't do that again though, because that takes a bunch of time, and it cost me more to use dates from the store than it cost to buy this already turned into date sugar.The texture of this date sugar is uniform enough that it works well in recipes, but the color and size of the granules varies enough that you know it comes from real food instead of being some sort of chemical product. The date sugar is quite sweet, and very easy to work with.I will definitely continue to buy this date sugar.

Definite texture difference
By RyemsonRox
I'm completely new to date sugar so this is more of a review of the sugar and not the brand. We buy quite a bit of products from NOW foods and are always impressed. For the past few months we've bee using coconut sugar and I've always been impressed with the results in baked goods. I would sub it one for one in my recipes and while it would change the color of the final product the taste and texture were great. I did the same thing with date sugar in a brownie and cookie recipe. Both turned out very bland and gummy. The final result was not at all sweet. I realize this isn't an actual usage, but just chopped dried dates but I was really hoping for something slightly sweeter. For me, the hardest part was the texture of the cookies and brownies. Very dry and gummy. I'm going to continue to try new recipes and hopefully find a few tailored specifically to date sugar. In the meantime I think I'll use half coconut sugar and half date sugar in my recipes. All of these issues could simply be my lack of familiarity with the sugar, so if you're already a fan I'd definitely recommend the brand. The sugar is uniform in color and texture and the packaging is well done. Amazon definitely has the best price compared to the one location in my area that I can actually find it.
