Our Story · Est. Monaco
Where dates meet dates.
Organic Medjool dates from Jordan. Handmade in Monaco. Eaten everywhere.
01·The Idea
A date worth dressing up for.
Date Me started with a pun and got serious. Founded by Charlotte Nina Cassir in Monaco, it began with a simple observation: the date — the fruit that has anchored tables across the Middle East for a thousand years — deserved the same treatment as the other kind of date. Some effort. Some intention. Something worth getting dressed up for.
So we dressed it up. An organic Medjool date, filled with nut butter, wrapped in fair-trade dark chocolate, finished by hand. Twelve flavours, each with its own personality. A snack styled like modern romance — because if you're going to fall for something, it should be worth falling for.
Where dates (the fruit) meet dates (the experience).
The name was never just a joke. It is a promise about standards. You would not settle in your love life — do not settle at snack time either. No red flags. No fillers. No games. Just something real, made properly, that shows up exactly as advertised.
02·The Heritage
The date never needed an explanation.
In Lebanese culture — and across the Middle East and North Africa — the date has never needed an explanation. It appears at every table, at every occasion, before every meal. It is hospitality. It is tradition. It is comfort in its most ancient and uncomplicated form. Date Me was built on that foundation, and we have not moved from it.
Our Medjool dates are organic, grown in Jordan, and treated with the respect a thousand-year-old tradition has earned. What we add — the chocolate, the filling, the finishing — is a love letter to that inheritance. Not a rewrite.
It is hospitality. It is tradition. It is comfort in its most ancient form.
03·The Craft
Small batch. By hand. In Monaco. Every time.
There is a version of this product that could be made at scale. Automated filling equipment. Standardised batch sizes. Centralised production. Lower cost per unit. More margin.
We do not make that version.
The Medjool date is a natural product — no two are exactly the same size, the same softness, the same shape. A machine cannot respond to that. A person can. Every date is selected, pitted, filled, and enrobed by hand, in small batches, in Monaco.
Every batch is a decision. Not a production run.
04·The Philosophy
Maximum pleasure. Less sugar. Zero compromise.
We hold our ingredients to the standard you should hold your dates to: nothing artificial, nothing hidden, no fine print. The sweetness comes from the date itself — never from refined sugar. The chocolate is fair-trade and dark. The nut butters are pure. If an ingredient cannot explain what it is doing here, it does not get in.
No toxic ingredients. No toxic exes. We have standards.

05·The Introductions
Twelve dates. Zero bad matches.
Every flavour in the collection has a name, a personality, and a type. The Heartbreaker is dangerous. The Green Flag is the one your friends approve of. The Intellectual brings tahini and raw honey to the conversation. Twelve characters, one standard — every single one an organic Medjool date, a pure nut butter, and fair-trade dark chocolate.
The Heartbreaker
Peanut butter, raw cacao nibs, flaky sea salt. Goes in beautifully. Leaves a mark. Bold, intense — the kind of thing you think about the next day.
The Green Flag
Cashew butter and ceremonial-grade matcha. Every box you didn't know you needed ticked — and it's beautiful too.
The Intellectual
Tahini and raw honey — thousands of years of Middle Eastern tradition in one thoughtful, quietly confident bite.
