Date Better Snacks are clean, vegan-friendly stuffed date snacks that combine chocolate and nut butter to offer a decadent treat without any preservatives or emulsifiers.
Michelle Valdez-Wilton, founder and CEO of Date Better Snacks, recently won Naturally LA's Pitch Slam and will compete for the grand prize at the Natural Products Expo East Pitch Slam. In an interview with New Hope Network, Valdez-Wilton said, "I really wanted to be able to offer healthy, indulgent treat alternatives to replace a candy bar." Despite having a sweet tooth, she found that sugar became less enjoyable with age and that's where these stuffed date snacks come in as a healthy yet indulgent treat.
Date Better Snacks are available in several flavors, including Peanut Butter Crunch, Almond Java Crunch, Cashew Lime Crisp, and the newest, Hazelnut Praline.
