More and more people are paying attention to what they eat, whether for health, well-being, or conditions like celiac disease, which requires a gluten-free diet. At El Monaguillo, we are committed to conscious, safe, and healthy eating.
In today’s world, more and more people are paying attention to what they consume—whether for health, well-being, or specific dietary conditions. One of the most well-known is Celiac disease, an autoimmune disorder that requires those affected to eliminate gluten from their diet. At El Monaguillo, we are committed to conscious, safe, and delicious eating. That’s why we want to highlight one of our natural stars: the date—a food as versatile as it is beneficial, and celiac.
The date is the fruit of the date palm, cultivated for thousands of years in warm, arid regions of the world. Today, its consumption has gone global thanks to its sweet flavor, pleasant texture, and high nutritional value. Best of all: dates are naturally gluten-free, making them a safe option for people with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
In addition, dates are a rich source of dietary fiber, potassium, magnesium, iron, and natural antioxidants. Their energy content comes mainly from natural sugars like fructose and glucose, making them ideal as a snack between meals or as a healthy alternative to refined sugar in various recipes.El dátil es el fruto de la palmera datilera, cultivado desde hace miles de años en zonas cálidas y áridas del planeta. Hoy en día su consumo se ha extendido globalmente gracias a su sabor dulce, su textura agradable y su altísimo valor nutritivo.
At El Monaguillo, we not only offer dates in their original form but also a variety of date-based products that retain their nutritional properties and are carefully crafted to remain entirely gluten-free:
For people with celiac disease, avoiding gluten means not only eliminating wheat, barley, or rye but also preventing cross-contamination. That’s why, at El Monaguillo, all our products are manufactured in controlled environments and closely monitored by our laboratories to ensure that our customers can enjoy them with complete peace of mind.
Dates and their derivatives are not only healthy—they’re also incredibly versatile. They can be eaten on their own, in snacks, sweet or savory recipes, in baking, smoothies, salads… They can even be stuffed with natural fillings like almonds, walnuts, and other nuts, turning them into a healthy, delicious, and satisfying snack. Dates are also suitable for vegetarian, vegan, and of course, gluten-free diets.
At El Monaguillo, we believe that eating well doesn’t have to be complicated. Our dates are a simple, tasty, and nutritious way to care for your health without giving up the pleasure of eating. Each of our products is made with dedication, respect for the fruit’s natural origin, and a strong commitment to quality.
Including dates in your diet is a delicious way to add nutrients, energy, and natural sweetness—without additives or gluten. They are a real, safe, and conscious alternative that proves taking care of yourself can also be a genuine pleasure.
Ultimately, at El Monaguillo, we work every day to offer foods that nourish the body and respect the needs of each person. With dates as our star, we reaffirm our commitment to an inclusive, natural, and gluten-free diet, where flavor and health go hand in hand.
