Keto Chocolate Candies Recipe – How to make low carb sugar free chocolate candy dessert treats filled with strawberries.

Keto Chocolate Candies Recipe

Keto Chocolate Candies Recipe

This keto chocolate candies recipe is easy to follow and creates a decadent chocolate sweet treat.

I tend to cook up a whole 500g/1.1lb bag of strawberries, take what I need for the candies and store the rest in the fridge to mix through smoothies and yogurt.

I only started experimenting with tempering chocolate recently. It’s really not as tricky as you may have been lead to believe. I found this video to be helpful in explaining the process.

You’ll need a mold of some sort to form your candies, you can either use an actual chocolate mold (like this one on Amazon) or even use silicone ice cube trays which come in all kinds of shapes and sizes.

Strawberry filled low carb chocolates

Keto Chocolate Candies Recipe

  • 500g/1.1lb Bag of Frozen Strawberries
  • 1/4 Cup Stevia
  • Juice of half a lime or lemon
  • 4.4oz/125g Keto Chocolate
  1. Start by preparing the strawberry filling by placing the strawberries into a saucepan on the stove top over medium heat.
  2. Stir the strawberries regularly until they soften to a puree.
  3. Mix through the stevia and lime or lemon juice then either mash or blend until smooth to your liking. You can pass the strawberry puree through a sieve and pop it back on to the heat to reduce further if you like.
  4. Set the strawberry filling aside to cool and then see to your chocolate.
  5. Break the chocolate into chips and then place two thirds of the chocolate in a bowl over a saucepan with bubbling water, keep the other third of chocolate handy.
  6. Stir the chocolate to help it melt and as soon as it’s all melted, remove from the heat and stir through the other third of the chocolate.
  7. Pour the melted chocolate into chocolate molds, using a spoon or brush to help the chocolate reach every corner of the mold.
  8. Tip the mold over the bowl to shake off any excess and then place into the fridge to set for 5 to 10 minutes.
  9. Once the chocolate has set, fill each one about 3/4 full with the strawberry filling then place back into the fridge for a further 5 to 10 minutes.
  10. Remove the chocolates from the fridge and pour over the rest of the melted chocolate, smoothing the top to help it cover every corner.
  11. Return the chocolates to the fridge for a final time to fully set, give it at least half an hour and then pop the chocolates out and enjoy.

Keto Chocolate Truffles Recipe - How to make easy no bake 4 ingredient low carb and sugar free truffle balls dessert

Keto Chocolate Truffles

These keto chocolate truffles make an easy, decadent dessert treat that’s perfect for Christmas, Valentines Day or for all through the year when you’re craving a sweet treat.

The rich chocolate dessert makes a deliciously decadent, melt in the mouth creamy delight that will satisfy your sweet tooth craving.

Keto Truffle Ingredients

4 Ingredient truffle options

These low-carb truffles need only 4 ingredients, and below there are plenty of ideas for flavor inclusions and toppings:

Keto Chocolate – opt for 85% or 90% sugar-free chocolate or dark chocolate chips for the lowest carb and sugar content for your truffles. Lindt is always a luxurious option, but I’ve also made these with my go to ALDI 85% chocolate and they are just as divinely chocolatey, without too much added sugars.

Stevia – you can use your sugar alternatives or sweetener of choice, such as stevia or monk fruit sweetener, in this recipe. Start with less and add more to taste. If you’d like your truffles to be extra dark, then you can always leave out sweetness all together.

Butter – I usually opt for salted butter as it enhances the flavor and richness of the truffles.

Mixing ingredients together

Cream – use a high percentage of cream for extra creamy, delicately soft truffles, such as heavy cream, heavy whipping cream or double cream.

Swap the cream for coconut milk or coconut cream, use dairy free butter and chocolate for a chocolate truffle recipe that’s completely dairy free.

More Simple Ingredients Ideas

Sugar free truffle flavor and toppings ideas

You can keep the truffles simply chocolate flavored. Or, here are some ingredients you can choose from to flavor your low carb chocolate truffles recipe with.

You can mix the flavoring into the batter before going into the fridge. Go for 1/4 to 1/2 a teaspoon, depending on how strong you’d like the flavor to be:

  • Orange, lemon or lime zest
  • Sea salt
  • Vanilla extract
  • Raspberry flavor extract
  • Orange extract or lemon extract or essence
  • Rose water

You can leave the truffles without rolling or dipping into any further dusting, or you could fill a plate with one of the following options and roll your truffles in them for an extra indulgent layer:

  • Grated keto chocolates for added chocolate flavor
  • Finely chopped nuts
  • Unsweetened cocoa powder or cacao powder
  • Shredded coconut
  • Melted chocolate coating

I like to start with cheese and then fill the rest of the platter around it.

Choose a couple of cheeses – I like to go for a soft, hard and cheese for dipping for a variety of textures and flavors.

Here are some to choose from:

  • Brie
  • Camembert
  • Blue Cheese
  • Pecorino
  • Gruyere
  • Smoked Cheese
  • Gouda

Keto Pumpkin Brownies Recipe

by

Keto Pumpkin Brownies Recipe – Easy Flourless Low Carb, Sugar Free & Gluten Free Chocolate Brownie Dessert with pumpkin and coconut flour – plus the video.

Keto Pumpkin Brownies Recipe – Easy Flourless Low Carb Gluten Free Brownie Dessert

Keto Pumpkin Brownies

These keto pumpkin brownies are a decadent sweet treat to make during pumpkin season when you’re craving all things pumpkin.

They are dark, chocolatey and naturally sweetened thanks to the inclusion of pumpkin puree that has natural sugar flavor.

For the puree, you can use canned pumpkin puree – just make sure that it’s unsweetened. Or, make homemade pumpkin puree yourself by boiling or roasting pumpkin, allowing it to cool and then blend the sweet flesh to a puree in a food processor.

For the dark chocolate in the chocolate brownies, you can use whatever low carb, keto friendly chocolate you usually include in your keto diet. I find that 85%, 90% or higher tends to be the lowest in carbs and sugars.

You can break up a block of chocolate or use chocolate chips in the keto brownies.

If you’d like, you can add in a few tablespoons of cocoa powder or raw cacao powder for added chocolate flavor or swirl almond butter or peanut butter through the brownie batter for peanut butter swirl sugar free pumpkin brownies.

For spiced traditional brownies for the holiday season, add in a half a teaspoon to a teaspoon vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, pumpkin pie mix or pumpkin spice blend.

You can enjoy the ketogenic diet friendly flourless brownies as the perfect fall dessert topped with keto chocolate whipped cream frosting.

Keto Chocolate Ganache Recipe

by

Keto Chocolate Ganache Recipe – rich, smooth and wonderfully chocolatey sugar free ganache. Made with low carb chocolate, butter, cream and a keto-friendly sweetener, it’s perfect for frosting keto cakes and cupcakes, drizzling over desserts or dipping fresh berries.

Jump to Recipe
Keto Chocolate Ganache Recipe - How to make easy low carb sugar free chocolate frosting

Keto Chocolate Ganache Recipe

This easy keto chocolate ganache is a rich, smooth and glossy chocolate frosting that’s made with just a few simple ingredients. It’s naturally low carb and can be used as a frosting, cake topping, dipping sauce or chocolate dessert.

You can make the ganache thicker for spreading and piping onto cakes and cupcakes, or leave it slightly thinner for pouring over keto desserts, berries or ice cream.

With low carb chocolate, butter, cream and your choice of keto-friendly sweetener, this is a simple keto ganache recipe that’s ready in minutes.

You can use the sugar-free ganache for frosting cakes like an indulgent chocolate cake (like this one) or to enjoy with a low carb friendly sweet treat, like as an indulgent dipping sauce for fresh raspberries or strawberries for a special day like Valentine’s Day.

Low Carb Frosting Ingredients

How to make low carb sugar free chocolate frosting

Here are the simple ingredients that you’ll need for this simple frosting:

Low Carb Chocolate – use a good-quality dark chocolate that’s suitable for your diet, such as 85% or 90% dark chocolate, or sugar-free chocolate chips. The chocolate you use will affect both the sweetness and the final carbohydrate count.

Unsalted Butter – adds richness and helps give the ganache a smooth, glossy texture. You can substitute coconut oil or cocoa butter if preferred.

Keto-friendly Sweetener – add your preferred keto-friendly sweetener to taste. The amount you’ll need will depend on the chocolate you’re using and how sweet you want the ganache to be.

Heavy Cream – A small amount of heavy cream gives the ganache a creamy texture and helps create a smooth, pourable frosting. You can adjust the amount depending on how thick you want your ganache to be.

Optional Ingredients – A pinch of salt can enhance the chocolate flavour, while a little vanilla extract can add extra flavour.

Easy keto chocolate ganache on a low carb cake

What Is Keto Chocolate Ganache?

Chocolate ganache is a rich chocolate mixture traditionally made with chocolate and cream. For a keto-friendly version, use low carb or sugar-free chocolate and a keto-friendly sweetener if needed.

The consistency can be changed depending on how you want to use it. A warm ganache can be poured over desserts, while allowing it to cool makes it thicker and suitable for spreading or piping onto cakes and cupcakes.

This recipe also uses butter for extra richness and a smooth, glossy finish.

How to Make Keto Chocolate Ganache

  1. Add the chocolate, butter, cream and sweetener to a small saucepan.
  2. Place the saucepan over low to medium-low heat.
  3. Gently heat, stirring regularly, until the chocolate and butter have melted.
  4. Continue stirring until the mixture is completely smooth and glossy.
  5. Remove from the heat and allow the ganache to cool.
  6. Use immediately while it is still pourable, or allow it to cool further until it reaches a thicker frosting consistency.
  7. Spread or pipe the cooled ganache over your favourite keto cake or cupcakes.

Recipe Tips

You’ll find that the longer you leave the cooked easy chocolate ganache to cool at room temperature, the thicker it will become.

You can also move the cooled, smooth ganache to a piping bag to swirl indulgently over your chosen sweet treat. 

So, it really depends on how you’ll be enjoying the best chocolate treat, whether you use the thinner ganache straight away at pouring consistency or wait a little bit longer for a thick, indulgent chocolate frosting.

If you’d like to adjust the texture, simply add a little cocoa powder to thicken or a little more cream to thin to more of a pouring consistency over ketogenic diet treats for a special occasion like a keto chocolate cake. 

Can You Make Keto Ganache With Cocoa Powder?

Yes, cocoa powder can be used to help thicken or intensify the chocolate flavour of ganache. However, cocoa powder on its own doesn’t create the same smooth, rich texture as melted chocolate.

For the smoothest ganache, I recommend using low carb or sugar-free chocolate as the main chocolate ingredient and adding a small amount of unsweetened cocoa powder if you want a deeper chocolate flavour or slightly thicker consistency.

Ways to Use Keto Chocolate Ganache

Keto chocolate frosting covered cake

Keto Chocolate Ganache Recipe

  • 1.76/50g ounces Low Carb Chocolate or Dark Chocolate Chips
  • 0.88/25g ounces Unsalted Butter
  • 1-2 Tablespoons Keto-friendly Sweetener
  • 3 teaspoons Heavy Cream
  1. Place all of the ingredients into a small saucepan.
  2. Move the saucepan to the stove top over low to medium heat.
  3. Gently heat the saucepan until the chocolate and butter have completely melted and you have a glossy rich chocolate ganache.
  4. Allow the warm ganache to cool and thicken at room temperature, then pour over a cake, chocolate cupcakes, ice cream or enjoy with a low carb friendly sweet treat, storing any leftovers in an airtight container.

How to Make Keto Ganache Thicker or Thinner

The consistency of chocolate ganache changes as it cools.

For a pourable ganache, use it while it is still warm and fluid.

For a thicker frosting, allow the ganache to cool at room temperature until it has thickened enough to spread or pipe.

If your ganache is too thin, allow it to cool for longer. You can also stir in a little additional melted chocolate or cocoa powder.

If your ganache is too thick, gently warm it again and stir in a small amount of cream until it reaches your preferred consistency.

For piping, allow the ganache to cool until it is thick enough to hold its shape.

How to Store Keto Chocolate Ganache

Store leftover ganache in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

It will become considerably firmer when chilled. Allow it to come toward room temperature before spreading, piping or pouring, or gently warm it until it reaches the desired consistency.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is chocolate ganache keto?

Chocolate ganache can be keto-friendly when it is made with low carb or sugar-free chocolate and a keto-friendly sweetener. Always check the nutritional information of the specific chocolate and sweetener you use.

Is ganache the same as chocolate frosting?

Ganache can be used as a chocolate frosting, but the consistency can vary. A warm ganache is thin and pourable, while cooled ganache becomes thicker and can be spread or piped onto cakes and cupcakes.

How do you thicken keto chocolate ganache?

The easiest way to thicken ganache is to allow it to cool. You can also add a little more melted chocolate if you need a firmer consistency.

How do you thin chocolate ganache?

If your ganache is too thick, gently warm it and stir in a small amount of cream until it reaches the consistency you want.

Can I make keto ganache with cocoa powder?

Yes. A small amount of unsweetened cocoa powder can be added to keto ganache for a deeper chocolate flavour or slightly thicker texture. For the smoothest ganache, however, use low carb chocolate as the main chocolate ingredient.

How long does keto chocolate ganache last?

Store leftover ganache in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Allow it to soften toward room temperature before using, or gently warm it to return it to a smoother consistency.

Can I use ganache to frost cupcakes?

Yes. Allow the ganache to cool until it becomes thick enough to hold its shape, then spread or pipe it onto cupcakes.

Can I use sugar-free chocolate chips?

Yes. Sugar-free chocolate chips can be used instead of a low carb chocolate bar, although the exact texture and sweetness will depend on the brand you use.

Helpful Products for Making Keto Chocolate Ganache

A few simple kitchen tools can make this recipe even easier:

  • Small saucepan – ideal for gently melting the chocolate, butter and cream together.
  • Silicone spatula – useful for stirring the ganache and scraping every bit of the chocolate mixture from the saucepan.
  • Measuring spoons – handy for accurately measuring the cream and sweetener.
  • Piping bag – if you’re using the ganache as a frosting for cupcakes or want to pipe decorative swirls onto a cake.
  • Small offset spatula – useful for spreading thickened ganache smoothly over cakes and cupcakes.

Keto chocolate cupcakes recipe with 4 ingredients

Keto Chocolate Cupcakes

There are only 4 ingredients in these easy keto chocolate cupcakes. And the batter comes together really quickly using just a food processor.

Low Carb Cupcake Ingredients

4 Ingredients for the cupcakes in the food processor

Here are the 4 ingredients you’ll need to create these cupcakes:

Almonds – use whole, blanched almonds. Which are almonds that are skinless. (Like these on Amazon.)

I like to lightly toast my almonds in a frying pan to give the cupcakes a full, roasted flavor.

Chocolate cupcakes batter

Low Carb Chocolate – use 85% or 90% dark chocolate which is low in sugars. I went for a block I found at ALDI, but you could also use indulgent Lindt too. (Here it is on Amazon.)

Eggs – 3 eggs are needed to bind the cupcakes together.

Stevia – is my sweetener of choice. Feel free to use whatever sweetener you usually include in your diet. And, as little or as much depending on how sweet you’d like your cupcakes to be.

You can enjoy these cupcakes as they are or topped with whipped cream or keto cream cheese frosting.

Keto Strawberry Milkshake Ingredients

Ingredients for keto smoothies and milkshakes

The 3 ingredients you’ll need are:

Frozen Strawberries – Frozen strawberries are ideal for this milkshake because they make the drink cold and thick without needing ice cream.

You can use anywhere from ½ to 1 cup depending on how strongly you want the strawberry flavour and how many carbohydrates you want to include.

Almond Milk – I use unsweetened almond milk because it keeps the milkshake relatively low in carbohydrates.

Make sure you choose an unsweetened variety, as sweetened almond milk can contain significantly more sugar.

Blending together low carb friendly milkshake with strawberries

Cream – any cream will do in this smoothie, it’s included to add creaminess and healthy fats.

Optional additions

Sugar-free chocolate – grated over the top for a chocolate-covered-strawberry variation.

Vanilla extract – adds extra flavour.

Stevia or another keto-friendly sweetener – if you prefer a sweeter milkshake.

Low carb protein powder – for additional protein.

Whipped cream – for serving.

Recommended Blender – If you’re using a blender regularly for smoothies and milkshakes, a personal blender such as a Nutribullet can be useful for quickly blending small quantities.
