Wild Date

At TheGlitz, we’re always on the lookout for guilt-free indulgences that don’t compromise on taste. So when a curated hamper from Wild Date landed on our desk, we knew we were in for a treat, both delicious and wholesome. Known for their clean, plant-forward philosophy, Wild Date has made a name for itself in the world of conscious snacking. And this time, they delivered perfectly assembled boxes of four delightful offerings: the Wild Date Chocolate Cookie, Wild Date Cranberry Bar, Wild Date Peanut Butter Choco Cookie, and Wild Date Hazelnut Granola.

Let’s just say: snack time at TheGlitz HQ has never looked (or tasted) this good. Let’s dig in…

Unveiling The Wild Date Hamper

Wild Date

Wild Date Chocolate Cookie – ₹25

We started our tasting journey with the classic Chocolate Cookie, and were pleasantly surprised by its rich, cocoa-laced aroma. It crumbled beautifully… soft on the inside, with just enough bite on the outside. Sweetened naturally with dates (true to the brand name), this cookie managed to hit that nostalgic chocolate chip note without the sugar crash. What we loved most? The texture was satisfyingly dense, almost brownie-like, but never too heavy.

This cookie is proof that indulgence and integrity can, in fact, coexist.

Wild Date Cranberry Bar – ₹423

Next up: the Cranberry Bar, which turned out to be the perfect balance of tart and sweet. While many so-called “healthy bars” tend to lean overly nutty or too dry, this one stood out for its soft chew and juicy berry bursts. The tang of the cranberries made this an ideal midday energy booster.

We loved that it didn’t feel overly processed or artificially sweetened… just clean ingredients doing their thing, elegantly. Think hiking essential meets handbag staple.

Wild Date Peanut Butter Choco Cookie – ₹255

Now this one had the entire editorial team obsessed. If you’re a peanut butter lover (and really, who isn’t?), this cookie is a revelation. Intensely nutty, with swirls of deep chocolate running through it, the Peanut Butter Choco Cookie is a protein-packed powerhouse that doesn’t skimp on flavour.

It’s slightly more decadent than the classic chocolate version, and perfect for a post-workout treat or for those 4 p.m. office cravings when you need something satisfying without spiraling into sugar overload.

Wild Date Hazelnut Granola – ₹255

Finally, we tried the Hazelnut Granola, which arrived as a crunchy, golden mix that we immediately wanted to sprinkle on everything… from Greek yogurt and smoothie bowls to our morning almond milk. The hazelnuts brought a deep, toasty richness that elevated the granola from simple to sublime.

What set it apart was the freshness. None of that stale, over-processed cereal box feel here. Just clean oats, roasted nuts, and the natural sweetness of dates, bound together in a perfectly spiced medley. Bonus: it’s entirely plant-based and free from preservatives.

TheGlitz Final Thoughts

We truly believe that Wild Date has managed to do something rare: create snacks that align with modern nutritional consciousness while still celebrating flavour. There’s no compromise, no aftertaste of sacrifice… just indulgent, satisfying bites made from clean, honest ingredients.

We confess, at TheGlitz, we’re inundated with “healthy” snack options, but few have struck the right balance like Wild Date. The hamper, with its artfully selected mix of cookies, bars, and granola, is ideal for anyone who wants to snack smart without giving up their favourites.

Whether you’re an urban wellness warrior, a gym-goer with a sweet tooth, or simply someone who wants better bites at tea time, this range deserves a permanent spot in your pantry.

Our Verdict? Decadently nutritious, wonderfully crafted, and utterly snackable. Wild Date… consider us converted.
