Date Better reviews and discussion

I really want to love these because the branding and packaging is SO CUTE. They're not bad by any means but they're not a memorable snack. For the price, I was definitely expecting more than just two in the box. I tried both Cashew Lime Crunch and Peanut Butter Crunch and wished the flavors were a bit more pronounced in both. I wouldn't turn them down if someone offered them to me but I also won't go out of my way to find these in stores again unfortunately.

Loved their packaging and how it is showcased. Inside has 2 medium sized dates covered with chocolate and different flavors. Great for gifts which I would want to give to my friends. But one downside would be the price is a bit luxurious. If they were to put in a little more or put these in not a plastic bag but in a nice separated box, it would be an ideal gift!

Fun party favor I was given on a bachelorette party! The chocolate was high quality and they made for a great snack on my travel day leaving the girls trip. You do not get very many for each box, which was alittle surprising when I opened it. But again, I was gifted the box so that didn't make a big impact on my review.

These are beautifully packaged and lovely luxurious snacks to include in a gift for a friend! They're also available at local boutiques in Austin, giving me an opportunity to support businesses in my neighborhood.

I think these are so tasty and obviously love the packaging but I just wish there was more in the box for the price. I know dates can be expensive but these are generally pretty easy to make at home for a fraction of the price

I give Date Better major points for such beautiful packaging. But from there I was a bit disappointed! There are only two dates in the box which was $7.50 at the store I bought it. I definitely didn't think there would only be two. They are covered in chocolate and filled with the flavoring. The flavor I had was nice but kind of got lost in the flavor of the date. I would be open to trying another flavor but don't really see myself buying them again given the quantity and price point.

I was surprised by just how much of the peanut butter filling was in the dates! Honestly, it overwhelmed the actual date flavor a little bit, but I suppose if I wanted straight-up dates, I'd just eat a plain date. Expensive? Yes. There are only two dates per package. I wish there was one or two more, but I understand that every step in the production process has people behind it, and everyone deserves to be paid a living wage.

I saw these at the checkout counter of a local cafe (s/o Billie's Grocery in Kansas City), and I was intrigued by the peanut butter + date concept. Two things I love so much individually, so I just had to try. These are DELICIOUS! I wouldn't change anything about the flavor / size / packaging. I know that people have given feedback about the high price point and how there are only 2 dates per package. In my opinion, neither of these bother me for this product. These dates are big, dense and super sweet. I probably could eat a few more, but I don't think it would make sense for a large resealable bag. I would envision a pack of max 4. As for the price point, it wasn't that expensive in my opinion. It was around $7. I think this is about what you would pay for a high-quality pastry / dessert in a cafe.

Finally tried the variety pack and am so happy I did! These are crazy good and filling. I couldn’t eat more that one in a sitting. I thought the price was high until I saw the serving size. I feel like it’s actually a really good deal for what you get. It costs less than my usual healthy treats and tastes better.

$7 for two chocolate-covered dates is outrageous. But they are also very very tasty, and the packaging is gorgeous.

2 chocolate covered dates come in the beautifully packaged box with a plastic sleeve inside. They're delicious and super super rich

Love these so much. Worth the treat to myself.

The packaging is really beautiful. I love chocolate covered dates but these did not do it for me much, I feel I can replicate at home considering the price point as well. But again, +1000 points for gorgeous branding.

Like other reviews, I agree these are expensive and I regular make these sweet treats at home. I would purchase again as a gift.

WOW. I tried their Hazelnut Praline flavor and was blown away by how much it tasted like a Ferrero Rocher, sans the crispy bits. It's a healthy dessert to have around as well, as it has less than a gram of added sugar.

received as a gift, which was fun. the dates themselves were good, but nothing particularly special. might not by for myself in the future, but enjoyed having them.

Date Better's dates are delicious and feel like a fancy treat. But you only get two per package and it feels very expensive for the money.

Taste wise, these are fantastic. Crunchy, nutty, and chocolatey is a hard combo to beat. The only draw back is the price point! $7 for two dates is a hard pill to swallow.

Super yummy and decadent. Would make a great gift, too!

First things first, the flavour is AMAZING. The dates are so fresh and the peanut butter crunch reminds me of a Snickers x Reese's (perfect combo IMO). However, you only get two per pack (I was assuming it would be four, even given the size of the box) which makes it a pretty expensive snack when you want a sweet treat. I grabbed a box when I saw them at my local boutique grocer, but I was SHOCKED when I was rung up and saw the price. Delicious? Yes. Expensive? Also yes, especially when this kind of snack is so easy to make at home. I love supporting a local biz here in my hometown of LA, but dang.
