Our Story
Back in 2017, our founder, Robbie Madfis, was burned out from startup life and found refuge in the kitchen. Out of late-night cravings and wild flavor experiments came something unexpected: California Medjool dates, stuffed with spicy sunflower butter and dunked in dark chocolate. What began as a blog (shoutout to “Just Recipes”) quickly gained a following.
Today, Hot Date Kitchen has grown to serve people just as obsessed with quality, taste, and values. We still hand-make every date in Rhode Island. We still stuff them with only the best — single-origin spices, sustainable ingredients, and zero BS. And we still believe snacking can be hot — indulgent, functional, and aligned with your values.
Our Non-GMO dates come from Bard Valley Dates. Zero synthetic fertilizers, low pesticide usage, and regenerative soil and water practices.
Our spices come from Burlap & Barrel, a Public Benefit Corp that sources non-GMO, single-origin spices directly from smallholder farmers and foragers
Our Non-GMO sunflower butter comes from SunButter, produced in North Dakota from U.S grown sunflowers.
Our Non-GMO chocolate comes from Republic del Cacao (B-Corp Certified) and is sourced directly from Ecuadorian farmer.
Our Massachussets Roasted, Fair-Trade coffee comes from Dean's Beans Organic Coffee, 100% employee-owned.

Built to Be Better: Our Sustainability Promise
Let’s face it: the food system wasn’t built for sustainability — it was built for speed and scale. That’s not us.
At Hot Date Kitchen, we’re not perfect, but we are intentional. Every choice we make is about doing better — for people, the planet, and your cravings.
We are certified Carbon Neutral.
We focus on five key areas to keep our impact real:
- Plant-based, nutrient-rich, crave-worthy.
- Direct from farmers & foragers with fair trade values.
- Handmade in Rhode Island, no shipping containers.
- Low-waste, low-emission, eco packaging.
- 10% of profits donated + trees planted per sale.
Sustainability isn’t a checkbox. It’s our baseline.
