What’s more, there are loads of things you can do to add pazazz:

• Try coating the dates in melted dark chocolate before letting them cool.
• Wrap each almond in a little marzipan before putting inside the dates.
• Gently warm some local honey, add a pinch of black pepper and any other spices you fancy, and coat the dates with the warming, spicy mix.
