SWEET COMPLEMENTS | SWEET

DATES + CREAM = DREAM TEAM

Traditional toffee sauces are, predominately, made from a lot of sugar. This recipe is sweetened purely with naturally sweet dates. Dates, as opposed to sugar, are a whole food and have the added benefit of fibre. However, being a dried fruit, are higher on the glycemic index, so be mindful. We find just a few is enough to create this super sweet sauce.

Enjoy drizzled over cakes, pancakes or cooked fruit.
