Mabroom Dates (Imported)

Mabroom dates are a premium Saudi variety grown in the fertile palm valleys of Al-Madinah, Saudi Arabia. They are easily recognised by their long, slender shape and deep amber to dark brown skin, making them one of the most visually distinctive dates available. Mabroom has a firm, chewy texture with a subtle honey-like sweetness and a clean, light finish. Unlike wider varieties such as Medjool, Mabroom is less sugary and less sticky, making it a preferred choice for those who enjoy dates without an overwhelming sweetness. It is one of the few premium date varieties with a naturally lower sugar content, which has made it increasingly popular among health-conscious consumers and those managing their sugar intake.

How To Enjoy Your Mabroom Dates?

- Enjoy 2 to 3 Mabroom dates with your morning coffee or green tea for a light, satisfying start to the day.

- Blend into smoothies or energy balls as a natural low-sugar sweetener.

- Use as a pre- or post-workout snack paired with a handful of almonds.

Shelf Life and Storage

Mabroom dates have a shelf life of 2 to 3 months at room temperature when stored in an airtight container, away from direct sunlight and heat. Refrigerating them in a sealed container extends their shelf life to 6 to 9 months. For longer storage, they can be frozen for up to 18 months. If a light white film appears on the surface, this is natural sugar crystallisation, and the dates are perfectly safe to eat. Allow them to sit at room temperature for a few minutes to restore softness before eating.
