Discover Iran’s premium organic date syrup – a natural sweetener packed with minerals. Made from sun-ripened dates, perfect for healthy cooking and global food markets.

Introduction to Date Syrup

This thick, caramel-colored liquid sweetener retains all the natural benefits of whole dates while offering versatile culinary applications. Our organic syrup contains 50% more potassium than maple syrup and has a low glycemic index (GI=47), making it ideal for health-conscious consumers.
