Scientifically satisfying

We use unrefined organic coconut sugar, which satisfies sweet cravings at a chemical level. Sugar substitutes do not.

  • When you’re craving something sweet, that’s your gut talking to your brain asking it for sucrose, the simplest chemical form of sugar (which is metabolized into energy).
  • If, instead, you give your gut a sugar substitute (like monk fruit, allulose, or stevia), your body doesn’t register those ingredients as sugar and the feeling of craving remains.
  • This is why treats that use sugar substitutes – despite tasting sweet – often have us reaching for another serving. They simply don't initiate the complex chemical process that produces feelings of satiety in the brain.  
Cleaner-than-clean label

Every ingredient on our ingredient panel is a whole food that comes from the earth with minimal (and often no) processing. This is outside the norms set by other "clean label" products. 

  • Most other “clean” treats use at least one or two bioengineered ingredients like “natural flavors,” preservatives, blended oils, or sugar substitutes.
  • Sometimes this is to keep costs low. Other times it’s a tactic to keep a specific macro low.
  • dalci wasn’t born in an R&D lab, so we just don't make products that way. Our founder, Najwa, created dalci because she literally couldn’t eat other clean treats without feeling junky. Our north star will always be treats Najwa can eat. To meet this standard, we simply have to be cleaner than other clean labels. 
Fits into 99% of diets

Our treats work with pretty much everything, except veganism (we use eggs).

  • dalci is gluten-free, grain-free, soy-free, and dairy-free.
  • We never use trans fats, blended oils, sugar alcohols, refined sugars, preservatives, additives, emulsifiers, lecithin, gums, binders, artificial dies, “natural flavors,” or carrageenan.
  • People on almost every kind of diet enjoy dalci: low sugar, low carb, paleo, Whole 30, keto, Low FODMAP, gut-focused, South Beach, Weight Watchers, & Noom to name a few.
  • We consciously designed dalci’s macronutrient profile for a dynamic balance of fats, carbs, and protein. So while our brownies don’t favor any one specific diet, they tend to fit into almost all of them (again, sorry vegans).

Just 7 simple ingredients

Our almonds are roasted to deepen their nutty flavor before having their skins removed. Removing the skins before grinding makes for a less grainy consistency that better mimics the feel of all purpose flour - the holy grail of baking. 

Our unrefined organic coconut sugar is made by dehydrating the sap of coconut palm flowers. This raw form of sugar has a lower glycemic index than table sugar and common "low sugar" sweeteners, like monk fruit and stevia.

Our eggs come from pasture-raised chickens. Unlike cage-free chickens (who likely never leave a barn) or free-range chickens (who are legally entitled to just 2 square feet of outdoor space), pasture raised chickens enjoy at least 108 square feet of outdoor space per chicken. The result? A happy chick who produces a stellar egg.

Our 100% pure avocado oil is a best-in-class super fat that packs loads of antioxidants, nutrients, healthy omega 3s, and oleic acid; and contributes to better absorption of other key minerals.

Our cacao powder is literally just ground dried cacao beans. No additional sugars, salts, or additives - just 100% pure ground cacao!

Our pure vanilla extract is sourced from Madagascar, where vanilla flowers must be pollinated by hand (resulting in a much higher price!). We chose liquid extract over ground seeds because it creates a moister texture.

Pure, unadulterated, simple salt. Because everything tastes better with a little sprinkle of salt!

STORE LIKE HOMEMADE

Our brownies are just like homemade treats - moist, fresh, and won't stay good forever. We highly recommend refrigerating or freezing your brownies when they arrive to extend the shelf life by 6-12 months (more on that in the below FAQ!).

FAQ

For inquiring minds.

We recommend storing your brownies in the fridge or freezer. To reheat, pop in the microwave for 10-15 seconds.

Because we don't use any preservatives or stabilizers, our shelf life is comparable to homemade treats vs. the treats you find in the center aisle of the store. As a result, storing dalci in your fridge or freezer significantly extends the shelf life.

If stored in the freezer, dalci will stay good for 365 days.

If stored in the fridge, dalci will stay good for 180 days.

If stored at room temperature, dalci will stay good for 2 weeks.

Yes! Check out our Store Locator to see if we’re stocked in your area. And don't forget to look for us in the refrigerated section!

While many of our ingredients are organic, our products are not yet legally certified organic. Organic certification is a long (and time consuming!) process that we’re still in the process of completing.

But we are Non-GMO Project Verified. The Non-GMO Project is the industry pioneer in outlining clear, high quality standards for every step of a product's journey from farm to table. Read more about the Non GMO Project here.

Yes! dalci is made with a small amount of unrefined organic coconut sugar. We use between 9-10 grams of added sugar per brownie or blondie.

Perhaps equally important as the amount is the form of sugar we use - we only use unrefined organic coconut sugar. Using the rawest, most natural form of a sugar means your body is able to better recognize it when it's introduced to the digestive tract. This leads to better absorption, digestion, and satisfaction signaling to the brain.

Yes. dalci is a great treat for folks on keto. Each brownie or blondie has between 14-16g net carbs, and 2-3g saturated fats from high-oleic avocado oil.

No, dalci is not vegan. But we're working on a vegan line!

What does “clean label” even mean?

"Clean label" is the buzzword du jour. But the term itself is unregulated, allowing lots of brands to effectively "clean-wash" junk ingredients.
