Great question, young grasshopper. Here at Harken our mad scientists figured out how to make a classic caramel out of none other than the DATE fruit! The way we process superfruit and superfood mean we retain the natural sweetness of the fruit, while keeping intact it’s fibrous quality. The result is a bonafide candy bar with ~40% fewer calories and ~70% less sugar.

Full ingredient info for any of our products can be found on its product page! That said, we thought we’d take this time to highlight our favorite ingredient: The Date Fruit. It’s a superfood for a reason - dates are high in fiber and antioxidants, with nutritional benefits that help improve gut health, prevent chronic disease, boost brain health, and make your skin glowy 😃. But don’t just take it from us, listen to the folks at the Cleveland Clinic.

We thought you’d never ask :) This just so happens to be the part of our package we’re most proud of. Full nutritional info for any of our products can be found on its product page in the image carousel! Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any questions whatsoever.

Not all carbs are created equal. Fiber doesn’t affect your blood sugar, so they’re stripped out to get “net carbs,” which you can think of as the active carbs that affect your body. So, Net Carbs = Total Carbs - Fiber.

We also have no added sugar, so you know they’ll get all of what they need and none of what they don’t.

Harken's products are sold in "trays" and have 12 candy bars inside each tray. So, for example, if you order one "The Nutty One (12-Pack)", you will receive one tray of 12 The Nutty One candy bars.
