Keto Chocolate FAQs
Let's take a look at chocolate and its benefits - and how you can enjoy chocolate on keto. I have put together a FAQ of the main points!
Chocolate is made from ground and roasted cacao seed kernels. Dark chocolate contains 3 ingredients - cocoa mass (the fermented, ground and roasted cocoa seeds), cacao butter and sugar.
Yes, chocolate can be part of a keto diet - in moderation. Choose either dark chocolate with a very high cocoa content, unsweetened chocolate or chocolate that uses a sweetener in place of sugar.
Yes, you can. The best choice is a chocolate with a cocoa content of 90% cocoa solids or more. This way, the sugar content is very low and won't impact insulin levels. Also, be sure to stick to a small amount.
No. Regular milk chocolate contains a lot of sugar - around 50%. It is not keto friendly at all.
Where to start! Chocolate is nutritious and a source of antioxidants. It may reduce blood pressure, reduce the risk of heart disease and may even improve brain function. (source)
Yes, it does! It is scientifically proven that chocolate makes you happy by causing the release of endorphins in the brain.
The great thing about cocoa powder is that it acts as a substitute to flour. This means that it adds texture. The secret is to add enough moisture and not over-bake.
For cakes, muffins or brownies, it's either coconut flour or almond flour plus cocoa powder and a sugar substitute such as erythritol. Then, you would also use eggs and wet ingredients such as eggs, butter, almond milk, yoghurt or cream. For mousses or puddings, it could be either heavy cream, mascarpone or even avocado.
