ABOUT US
XCEL is truly an accident-turned-business. It was spring 2021 when I was making a bowl of oatmeal, and I wanted to add chopped dates. But all I had on hand was pitted dates. So I figured if I put pitted dates in a food chopper, I would have chopped dates.
What I ended up with instead was a gooey clump of dates that was nowhere near suitable for my bowl of oatmeal. But in the spirit of not being wasteful, and having some know-how in the kitchen, I was able to remix this goo into what is now known as XCEL.
​
In addition to our site, XCEL bars can be found at the following locations:
​
Rhino Market (Wesley Heights location in Charlotte, NC)
Uptown Farmers Market (Charlotte, NC)
Swarthmore College (Swarthmore, PA)
