Product Description
Ajwa Date Syrup
Ajwa date syrup is a thick, dark syrup made from ajwa dates, used to sweeten porridge, yoghurt, pancakes and baking. It pours slowly and tastes of caramel and toffee. It is sometimes called date molasses.
Ajwa dates are a soft, dark variety with a rich, fudgy taste. The syrup is a simple way to bring that taste to breakfasts, bakes and dressings. Many people use it in place of honey or maple syrup.
What Does Ajwa Date Syrup Taste Like?
Ajwa date syrup tastes rich, fruity and mellow, with notes of caramel and a hint of treacle. It is sweet but rounder and deeper than a plain sugar syrup. The texture is thick and sticky, and it runs slowly off the spoon.
Ways to Use Ajwa Date Syrup
Ajwa date syrup works anywhere you would normally reach for honey, maple syrup or golden syrup. Here are some easy ideas:
- Drizzle over porridge, overnight oats or Greek yoghurt
- Pour over pancakes, waffles or French toast
- Mix with tahini for a classic spread on toast or flatbread
- Stir into flapjacks, granola and energy balls
- Whisk into salad dressings with lemon juice and olive oil
- Brush over roast carrots, squash or chicken in the last few minutes of cooking
- Blend into smoothies and milkshakes
Tips for Cooking and Baking with Date Syrup
Date syrup is easy to swap into recipes, but a few small habits help. If the syrup feels stiff, stand the jar in a bowl of warm water for a few minutes. It will then pour and measure more easily.
When you bake with it, check your cake or flapjacks a little early. Dark syrups can brown slightly faster than white sugar. A lightly oiled spoon also stops the syrup sticking when you measure it.
Ajwa Date Syrup FAQ
Can I use ajwa date syrup instead of honey?
Yes, you can often swap it for honey or maple syrup in equal amounts. The taste will be deeper and more caramel-like, so it suits porridge, baking and savoury glazes well.
Is date syrup the same as date molasses?
The two names are often used for the same kind of thick, dark date syrup. Shops and recipes use them in different ways, so look at the description to be sure.
How do I use date syrup with tahini?
Pour a little date syrup onto a plate beside some tahini and mix them together with a spoon. Scoop it up with warm bread or spread it on toast.
Add ajwa date syrup to your basket and drizzle it over your next bowl of porridge or batch of pancakes.

We take great care when preparing and securely packing every order; however, during transportation, parcels may be handled by several parties, including the courier, and despite our best efforts, minor cosmetic damage such as dents, marks, scuffs or damage to external packaging may occasionally occur. Minor cosmetic damage that does not affect the product’s safety, quality or intended use will not normally be considered a product defect. This is particularly applicable to products supplied in cans, tins, plastic containers, boxes or similar packaging. If you receive a product that is broken, leaking, materially damaged, unsafe, unusable or otherwise not as described, please contact us within 24 Hours of delivery by email or telephone and provide your order number, details of the issue and clear photographs of the damaged product and packaging. We may require further information or evidence to investigate the matter and, where necessary, may take up to 14 days to complete our investigation. Where damage appears to have occurred during delivery, we may need to raise a claim with the courier, and you may be required to complete and return any Damage on Receipt (DOR) form or other documentation requested by the courier before the claim can be processed. Some products we sell are price-marked or display a manufacturer’s recommended or printed retail price. Please note that our online selling prices may differ from the price printed on the product because online orders involve additional costs such as picking, packing, packaging materials, warehouse handling, payment processing, website administration and delivery-related costs. You may therefore receive a product displaying a printed or recommended retail price that is lower than the price you paid online. The price you agree to pay is the online selling price displayed on our website at the time you place your order, and the presence of a lower printed or recommended retail price on the packaging does not, by itself, mean that the online purchase price was incorrect. Product images displayed on our website are for illustration and presentation purposes only. Actual product packaging, branding, design, colour, size, shape or appearance may vary depending on availability, manufacturer, batch or packaging updates. Such variations do not necessarily indicate that the product supplied is different from the product ordered, provided that the product itself corresponds to the description and specifications stated on the website. We ask customers to check their order and products as soon as reasonably possible after delivery and contact us promptly if there is any material damage, fault, incorrect item or issue with the goods.
