MAGICDATES
When I moved to the US, I found that dates are hidden instead of spotlighted and are used only as fillers, binders, or sweeteners.
And I wondered, why hide nature’s candy? They’re naturally rich in potassium, magnesium, and fiber- all essential nutrients for a healthy gut, bones, and immunity.
So I founded MAGICDATES - a nutrient-dense, plant-based, gluten-free, no-sugar-added, date treat. Triple Choco Crunch, Lush Lemon Bar, and Salted Walnut Brownie are the top flavors.
For me, food has always been about more than just eating. It is nostalgic, and it connects us. Growing up in Damascus, Syria, dates are an essential and traditional daily treat. During Ramadan, my family and I would break our fast with a date stuffed with walnuts. Dates hit the sweet spot for me without added or refined sugar.
So I knew that by using this ancient fruit of my ancestors as the hero ingredient, I could create a nutrient-dense treat with no sugar added and help reclaim the narrative of the Middle East by sharing my uplifting story.
