If you’re looking for the biggest, most succulent dates, you’re looking for Medjoul dates. Known as the ‘King of Dates’, these Fair Trade Medjoul dates are high in fibre and potassium, and deliciously soft with their caramel texture.
These toffee-like organic Medjoul dates are grown in rich soils around the ancient city of Jericho, in Palestine. The traditional farmers there nurture the dates in much the same way as their ancestors did, and are dedicated to looking after the earth, just as it looks after us.
Recipe Hint:
These flapjacks look rather good – I’ll definitely be trying them out!
Homemade marzipan without refined sugar can be made from just almonds and dates – see Kim Nielson’s recipe.

I haven’t tried them myself, but I sent them to my dad for a Father’s Day present and they were very much appreciated!
