Maître Dattier (Oberkampf)

Maître Dattier's culinary focus is singular and specialized: transforming premium Deglet Nour dates into artisanal confections that showcase both the fruit's natural qualities and the possibilities of skilled craftsmanship. This isn't simply about selling dates—it's about reimagining what dates can become through careful preparation, creative filling combinations, and refined coating techniques.

The house works exclusively with Deglet Nour varieties, prized for their translucent appearance, delicate sweetness, and ideal texture for transformation. Through their artisanal processes, these dates become vehicles for more complex flavor experiences—stuffed with complementary ingredients, enrobed in various coatings, and presented in ways that elevate them from everyday snack to sophisticated delicacy.

Their signature collections demonstrate the range of their craft. The Coffret Premium represents their most elaborate offerings, while the Coffret Révélation introduces newcomers to their approach, and the Coffret Lune Gourmande suggests themed collections for specific occasions. Beyond these curated selections, Maître Dattier offers customization services, creating bespoke date preparations tailored to specific events or preferences.

The épicerie fine aspect extends beyond dates themselves to include complementary gourmet items that round out their offerings, though dates remain the undisputed focus. This specialization allows them to maintain exceptional quality standards and develop deep expertise in their chosen domain, resulting in products that showcase what's possible when traditional ingredients receive contemporary artisanal attention.
