Sunshine Delights Dippies Dark Chocolate Dates & Cashew

Sunshine Delights Dippies Dark Chocolate Dates and Cashew: a soft date, a whole cashew, a dip of dark chocolate

Sunshine Delights Dippies Dark Chocolate Dates and Cashew are soft pitted dates filled with a cashew and half-dipped in dark Peruvian chocolate, in a 100 g bag from Sunshine Delights, the Hamburg dried fruit brand. It is the richest thing in the range and the closest a dried fruit snack gets to a proper praline.

Why this one

Three textures: sticky date, crunchy cashew, snapping chocolate.

High in fibre and low in salt: dessert-like, but built on fruit and nuts.

Sweetness from the date itself: the fruit does the work and the chocolate adds the bitter edge.

How it is made

Soft dates are stoned and filled with a whole cashew nut, then dipped partway into melted dark chocolate made with Peruvian cocoa and left to set. Every care is taken to remove the stones, but a fragment can occasionally remain. Because of the whole nuts, this one is not suitable for small children. Store at room temperature, out of direct sun.

Taste and texture

Caramel from the date, buttery crunch from the cashew, bitterness from the chocolate. It is denser and more indulgent than the Dippies Mango or Pineapple, which are fruit-forward and tangy; this one is the one you reach for with coffee.

Who it is for

The after-dinner coffee. Cyclists who want a dense, natural bite between the gels. Gift boxes, where it is usually the first thing to go.

Frequently asked

Is the cashew whole? Yes, one whole cashew inside each date.

Is it vegan? The recipe has no animal ingredients; the product facts tab has the full details.

How should I store it? Room temperature, out of direct sun, so the chocolate keeps its snap.
