QUESTION:

hello,

i've been cooking with date sugar of late, and love it. however, it is very expensive, and difficult to find. does anyone have a good source for date sugar online? i'm currently paying about $9 per pound at whole foods.

DEBRA'S ANSWER:

Best price I could find is $3.60 lb when you buy 25 lb (organic) at NaturalGrocers.com.

If you want to buy it by the pound, it's $4.49 lb for 1 lb at Adirondack Nutrition.

COMMENTS:

Azure Standard [www.azurestandard.com/] sells date sugar at $4.30 for one pound or $19.30 for 5lbs. They are a wonderful company that sells organic and natural foods at wonderful prices! They are based out of Oregon, but deliver everywhere. I've been very impressed with their company and products.

Hope that helps!

If you live near any health food store that receives product from United Natural Foods, a wholesale distributor, you can order date sugar in bulk. When I used to own a natural foods store, I would let my customers buy bulk items for cost plus 15% to cover my handling expenses. They had to pre-pay so that I didn't have to worry if they never came to get it, but they really enjoyed buying at a price that was comfortable for them. I'd ask a manager, rather than a sales clerk as the chances for success would be greater if you are introducing a new concept to them.

I buy my date sugar from vitaglo.com for $5.06 a lb. But, if you order $50.00 worth of merchandise there is no shipping charge. This site has hundreds of products at very good prices.
