They are medium-sized and oval-shaped with a dark brown color and a soft, moist texture. Harmony dates are exceptionally sweet with a luscious syrupy flavor. They have a smooth and creamy consistency.
Uses
Harmony Dates are often eaten raw as a naturally sweet treat, but are also good to use as a natural sweetener and thickener in smoothies.
