Not another nappy cake
The baby shower gift for the final stretch.
She's due. So are these dates. They're clean, lolly flavoured snacks packed with third trimester nutrition, perfect for the final stretch.
For her. Not the baby.
Just what the doctor ordered.
Not your grandma's date.
Surprise & delight.
Four flavours. One very good reason to eat dates.
Sour Cola
Chewy dates with a tangy cola twist. The one that makes people do a double-take and reach for another.
Fizzy Lemonade
Light, zesty, sparkling. Watch someone try it expecting a date. It does not taste like a date.
Strawberries & Cream
Sweet strawberry with a creamy finish. A grown-up take on the childhood classic.
Tangy Blackcurrant
Deep, tangy, and a little unexpected. The newest flavour and already the crowd pleaser.
Turns out there's actual research on this.
Several peer-reviewed studies have looked specifically at eating dates in the final weeks of pregnancy. The findings are specific: women who ate six dates a day in the last four weeks were significantly more likely to go into labour spontaneously, and needed less medical help to get things started.
There's also the practical stuff. Dates are high in fibre, potassium, and natural sugars that give steady energy rather than a spike and a crash. In the third trimester, that matters more than it sounds.
We're not a health product. But if someone's going to snack her way through the home stretch, these are a better call than a bag of snakes.

You might be wondering...
Dates have a real evidence base in late pregnancy. Multiple studies (including a 2024 meta-analysis covering 48 trials) link six dates a day in the final four weeks to shorter labour, less induction, and more spontaneous onset. They also bring fibre, iron, magnesium, and folate, which all matter in the third trimester.
The catch: plain dates every day for a month is a slog. That's the gap Bougie fills. Same fruit, naturally flavoured to taste like lollies, in a format she'll actually finish.
