Is chocolate keto?
When it comes to chocolate, its keto-friendliness depends on the production process. The base of chocolate, cocoa powder, contains no sugar or carbs. However, traditional chocolate includes added sugar and carbs.
Keto-friendly chocolate, on the other hand, utilizes sugar alternatives during processing, resulting in a final product that is suitable for a low-carb and keto diet.
So, with the right choices, you can enjoy delicious chocolate while staying on track with your keto lifestyle.

Nice recipe. It would be nice if you add “grams” to each ingredient. That would make it a lot easier outside the US.
For example how much cream cheese is 1 oz? 2 tbsp or 1/4 cup? the converting table says 30g.
Regars,

Hi Fabian! Thanks and glad you liked the recipe! As for the conversation, we’d have to buy the program that does that conversation for us. So we’ll def consider it in the future, but limited on investment funds for the time being! FYI, 1 oz of cream cheese is 2 tbsp.
here is a link for cooking equivalent charts……hope this helps. You can print out the charts and post them on the inside of a cub board door…..

Hi just to clarify. 2 net carbs per waffle? I just made these and they are soooo delicious! I ate them as is but can imagine them being delicious with berries and whipped cream. Great for the upcoming holidays when temptations are everywhere!
Hi Denise! Yes, it’s about 2 net carbs per waffle give or take and whipped cream and berries are ALWAYS going to be good idea! Glad you liked em!

Hi, do you know the shelf life? I wondered about shipping them to my mom
Hey Melissa! I know they can be frozen, but shipping with ice packs or dry ice would be $$! I honestly don’t know they would hold in a dry package under heat. My guess is it wouldn’t hold well.
