Organic Dates with Orange Peel - Snack Box

What a Date Organic Dates with Orange Peel Snack Box takes the plain date and gives it a citrus twist, threading candied orange peel through soft organic Khidri dates. It's a small change that makes a familiar snack feel a good deal more interesting, with the peel cutting through the dates' natural caramel sweetness. At 91% organic, it's a straightforward, honestly made treat.

Why You'll Love It

The dates are organic Khidri, plump and sticky, wrapped around thin strips of candied orange peel with just enough glucose syrup and sugar to bind everything together. The result is a chewy, dense bite where deep caramel sweetness meets a bright, slightly bitter citrus note, so it never feels one-dimensional. It's soft enough to eat straight from the box, whether that's at a desk, on a walk, or as something sweet after lunch, and being vegan and gluten-free it suits most people reaching into the packet.

How to Use It

These are best served at room temperature, when the dates are at their softest and the orange peel has that slight chew. Try slicing them thinly over porridge or yoghurt, or laying a few alongside a cheese board where the citrus can play off something salty. The candied peel running through the centre pairs particularly well with dark chocolate, toasted nuts or a strong coffee, and the dates soften nicely if you're stirring them into a warm dessert or baking them into something sticky. Otherwise, keep it simple: whole, with a pot of mint tea.

About What a Date

What a Date works with handpicked Khidri dates and builds on them with small, unexpected additions rather than long ingredient lists, orange peel here being a good example of that instinct. The approach stays deliberately simple: recognisable ingredients, organic where it counts, and just enough added to make the date more than the date. This snack box shows that thinking clearly, one strip of peel at a time.
