History

Whatever you do, don’t tell my kids that this spread is actually healthy, they’ve always thought they’ve been having dessert for breakfast. Hahaha! Caramellosel spread is a deliciously delightful way to add something new to your plate that doesn’t contain any added sugar. There’s only 4 g of sugar per serving compared to 7 g and even 12 g in traditional store-bought caramel spreads. Really? Yep, how cool is that? (See below for all the details). Enjoy!

I’m totally crazy about this recipe. It’s a simple spread, but it has a knack for upgrading any ordinary slice of toast into a delicious culinary experience. Hahaha! Honestly, my hubby and kids keep asking me to make it over and over again. Try it on toast in the morning, on your muffins, add some to your yogurt or… you can even give in to the simply irresistible urge to eat it by the spoonful. The recipe will feature in my upcoming book Bye bye refined sugar, hello date puree that will be released in summer 2021 (For the moment, it’s on page 47 of my French cookbook Bye-bye sucre raffiné, bonjour purée de dattes!).

*** By the way, this recipe is unbelievably scrumptious if you use my caramel date puree. The flavour goes right off the charts… that’s if you like caramel of course.

And a little hat’s off to my collaborator and nutritionist Isabelle Morin who provided the nutritional information.

FAQ

Where can I buy Madame Labriski date puree?

At IGA, Rachelle Béry, Marché Tradition and Bonichoix grocery stores across Quebec. My purees contain no preservatives and can be found in the fruit and vegetable section (yes, dates are fruit) near the pre-cut fruit and vegetables. If you can’t find them, simply ask a member of staff!
