Date Paste 15 kg (3 × 5 kg)

Basateen Al Wahat date paste in the 15 kg pack comes as three 5 kg pieces. It is for people who run more than one batch or location and would rather divide the quantity than lift one heavy block.

What does the paste bring to a recipe?

It is mashed dates with an even texture that gives a soft filling you can spread and shape. It suits ma’amoul, kleija and biscuits, goes into cookies and cakes, and gives the sweet a direct date flavour.

How should I store it?

• Take out one piece when needed and keep the rest sealed.
• Cut from it with clean, dry tools.
• Keep it away from heat and follow the storage instructions printed on the pack.

When is 15 kg better than 12 kg?

When you need flexibility, not just quantity. 5 kg pieces are lighter to carry around the kitchen, each team can have its own, and unopened pieces stay protected until their turn. If your batches are large and run back to back from one spot, the 12 kg pack may be simpler.

FAQ

Are the three pieces identical?

Yes, each is 5 kg of the same paste.

Does it suit a small sweet shop?

It does if the shop uses paste regularly. Otherwise, ask the Basateen Al Wahat sales team which size matches your volume.

Can I use it for things other than ma’amoul?

Yes. It works as a filling for cookies and biscuits and as an addition to cakes and date sweets.
