1 piece (medium) of Hazelnut Cocoa Date (25 g) has 87 calories. That works out to 349 calories per 100 g. It contains 15.7 g of carbs, 1.5 g of protein, 3.2 g of fat and 2.4 g of fiber. Its 0.1 mg of Copper covers 13% of the Daily Value. Its glycemic index is 50 (medium), so it raises blood sugar at a moderate pace.
Hazelnut Cocoa Date brings together the soft sweetness of dates, the nutty bite of hazelnuts and cocoa’s gentle bitterness. It is a compact date-based sweet rather than a dish tied to one particular regional tradition, and may be made at home or bought ready to eat.
The date stays chewy while the hazelnut adds a little crunch, making it an easy bite with coffee or tea, after a meal, or as a snack on the go. Dates provide much of its sweetness, and the combination is both energy-dense and a source of fibre: it has 9.7 g of fibre per 100 g. One medium piece is a practical portion; pair it with plain yogurt or fruit if you want a more substantial snack.

A Hazelnut Cocoa Date is made primarily with dates, hazelnuts, and cocoa. Recipes and packaged versions can include other ingredients, so check the ingredient list for additions such as syrup, sugar, or chocolate.
You can make a Hazelnut Cocoa Date by removing a date’s pit, filling it with a hazelnut, and dusting it with cocoa. Another option is to blend dates and hazelnuts with cocoa, then shape the mixture into bite-size pieces.
No, a Hazelnut Cocoa Date is not necessarily chocolate-covered. Cocoa powder may coat the date or be mixed into it, while a chocolate-covered date has a coating made with chocolate. The ingredient list will show which version you have.
Store a Hazelnut Cocoa Date in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. Heat can affect the hazelnuts’ flavor and soften the date. Refrigerate homemade or already-soft pieces, especially if you want them to keep their shape.
Yes, you can freeze a Hazelnut Cocoa Date. Place the pieces in a sealed container, separating them so they do not stick together, and thaw them in the refrigerator before eating. Avoid freezing them again after thawing.
Not always; the dates provide natural sugars, but recipes and products vary. Some include added sugar, syrup, or chocolate. Check the ingredient list to see whether anything sweet has been added beyond the dates.
Yes, a Hazelnut Cocoa Date can raise blood sugar because dates contain natural sugars. Hazelnuts and fiber may slow digestion, but they do not cancel out the carbohydrate. People managing diabetes should fit it into their personal meal plan.
Yes, a Hazelnut Cocoa Date can work as a small pre-workout snack because dates provide readily available carbohydrate. The hazelnuts may feel heavy close to exercise, so try a small portion well before training and see how it suits you.
A Hazelnut Cocoa Date pairs well with unsweetened coffee or tea, which balances its rich sweetness. For a more filling snack, serve it with plain yogurt; avoid adding another sweet topping if you want to keep the snack less sugary.
Yes, older children can eat a Hazelnut Cocoa Date if they can safely manage its chewy texture and have no hazelnut allergy. For younger children, avoid whole nuts and sticky, firm pieces that could pose a choking risk; serve an age-appropriate texture.
