There is method DateTime::toDate() inherited from AbstractInstant

You can format java.util.Date with
SimpleDateFormat

and you can format DateTime with
DateTimeFomratter

Or you can extend Date class 

public class MyDate extends Date
{
   private SimpleDateFormat FORMATTER = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyy-MMM-dd HH:mm:ss");

   public MyDate(Date date)
   {
      super(date.getTime());
   }

   @Override
   public String toString()
   {
      return FORMATTER.format(this);
   }
}

DateTimeFormatter fmt = DateTimeFormat.forPattern("yyyy-MMM-dd HH:mm:ss");
DateTime jodaDate = fmt.parseDateTime(utilDate);
