For specialty food distributors, natural sweetener brands, and premium confectionery manufacturers sourcing Sukari dates in bulk, Kartago Dates Wholesale offers direct-origin supply from Tunisian oasis farms — eliminating the multi-tier import chains that inflate cost and reduce documentation quality.
Sukari — the Arabic word for "sugar" — is our highest-Brix variety at 75–85 °Bx, making it naturally the sweetest date in our range. It is increasingly in demand from buyers who need a premium natural sweetener ingredient or a visually distinctive golden date for confectionery, gifting, and premium snacking applications.
Three converging trends are driving Sukari demand in North America: the growth of the clean-label sweetener category, the rise of premium date-based confectionery (chocolate-covered dates, stuffed date products), and growing consumer awareness of date varieties beyond Medjool through specialty food channels. We supply food businesses across the United States and Canada with full COA, Halal, and Kosher certification on every order.
The golden date with the highest natural sugar content in our range — a rising premium category in North American specialty food and sweetener markets.
Our Sukari is grown in the oasis regions of southern Tunisia, where extreme dry heat and an extended growing season concentrate the fruit's natural sugars to exceptionally high levels. Sukari is classified as a soft date variety — even softer and moister than Medjool — with a distinctive two-toned appearance at peak ripeness: a golden-yellow upper half transitioning to a caramel-brown lower portion.
The variety's flavor is immediately distinctive: intensely sweet, with a honey-caramel profile and a clean, mild finish with no astringency. The flesh is soft to the point of being almost syrupy at peak ripeness — giving it specific handling and storage requirements compared to firmer varieties, but making it exceptional for confectionery stuffing and natural sweetener applications.
Flavor profile: Intensely sweet, honey-caramel. Soft, melt-in-mouth texture. Minimal tartness. Clean finish with no astringency — making it the go-to choice when maximum natural sweetness and a visually distinctive golden color are the objectives.
