The Honey
Crafter.

Hand-dipped Belgian chocolate almonds and dates. Hand-labelled by Jess. Travel-friendly pouches — snack now, save some for later.

"Five years ago, in our home kitchen — with a few local delis and a lot of nougat."

Five years ago, The Honey Crafter began in our home kitchen with a simple goal: sharing our honey almond nougat with a few local delis in Port Elizabeth. We loved seeing people enjoy our treats, and that passion kept us growing.

In 2026, we decided it was time for something new. Jess, our lead chocolate maker, and her partner Stefan teamed up to create a line of decadent chocolate-coated dates and almonds.

We don't believe in shortcuts. We lightly toast our almonds over a slow heat to bring out their deepest flavour before hand-dipping them — along with our plump dates — into high-quality Belgian chocolate. Whether you love silky milk, intense dark, or creamy white chocolate, each piece is crafted with care.

To add a personal touch, Jess handwrites every single label. We then tuck these treats into travel-friendly zip-lock bags, so you can snack now and save some for later (if you can resist!). We're so proud of these chocolates and can't wait for you to try them.

— Jess & Stefan

Common questions.

Are chocolate dates a healthy snack?

Our chocolate dates pair naturally sweet dates with an almond and real Belgian chocolate. Dates are a wholefood source of fibre and natural energy, making them a more satisfying treat than processed sweets.

Do you deliver chocolate dates and almonds in South Africa?

Yes. The Honey Crafter is based in Port Elizabeth and you can order our Belgian chocolate dates and almonds directly via WhatsApp or email, or buy them from our listed stockists.

What chocolate do you use?

We hand-dip every almond and date in real Belgian chocolate, available in milk, dark, white, or a mixed pack with all three.

Are they travel-friendly?

Absolutely. Each batch comes in a resealable pouch designed to travel well, so you can snack now and save some for later.
