Can you eat chocolate on the ketogenic diet?
The ketogenic diet is a high-fat, low-carb diet that promotes fat burning by putting your body in a state called ketosis. Of course, you can eat chocolate on this diet, but you need to be careful when choosing.
On the ketogenic diet, you should make sure that your chocolate choices are low-carb and high-fat. You may think that dark chocolates are lower in carbohydrates. However, generally sugar is used to suppress the bitter taste of chocolate. That’s why you should definitely read the labels carefully. You should look for the statement that it does not contain added sugar.
It is also important to pay attention to portion control when consuming chocolate. Because even if your chocolate has no added sugar, it still contains carbohydrates. If you eat it too much, you may exceed your daily carbohydrate target. Therefore, try to consume chocolate in moderation to maintain your ketogenic diet.

- Once it is done, turn off the heat. Now you can add the vanilla and desiccated coconut powder.
