About This Candy
Warm Swedish Dates with Real Oats and Cinnamon
Cinnamon bun date bites deliver a warm, spiced chew that opens with a distinct cinnamon heat and settles into the deep caramel sweetness of whole dates. The real oats add a grainy, bakery-like texture that separates these from every other date candy on the market. As a result, the almond flour brings a subtle nutty richness that rounds out the cinnamon and anchors the flavor in something closer to actual pastry dough. Every bite carries that unmistakable Swedish kanelbulle warmth that hits hardest during the slow chew. In addition, a pinch of salt at 0.16g per 100g lifts the sweetness and prevents the cinnamon from tasting flat.
The oat and almond flour create a denser, more substantial bite than the fruit-only date candies in the range. Similarly, the cinnamon flavor builds gradually through the chew rather than hitting all at once and fading. Furthermore, the shea and coconut oil blend holds the coating together and keeps the interior moist without making the pieces greasy. Each bite rewards patience because the spice notes develop fully only after several chews. Overall, these bites turn Sweden's most beloved pastry into a pocketable date snack that needs no baking.
Why This Kanelbulle Date Stands Apart
This Swedish kanelbulle flavored date candy comes from Dave & Jon's, produced by Famora Foods in Uppsala, Sweden, pioneers of the world's first flavored date range. The cinnamon bun version is the only flavor in the lineup that includes oats and almond flour, making it the most bakery-inspired option. In contrast, most cinnamon-flavored snacks rely on cinnamon sugar coatings without any grain or nut base to support the flavor. Consequently, the Dave & Jon's version delivers a more authentic kanelbulle character because the oats and almond flour recreate the texture of actual pastry dough. The recipe also delivers the highest protein in the range at 3.4g per 100g. Kandy Lover ships every pack fresh from Sweden with free shipping worldwide.
