Lean balls without sugar - fresh dates differ from candied or dried dates in that they do not contain sugar, they are softer and usually larger depending on the type. These lean balls are not too sweet because the sesame and cocoa have a slightly stronger (bitter) taste. If you like sweeter tastes, you can add some natural sweetener.
