Can You Eat Chocolates On A Keto Diet?
You can eat chocolate on the Ketogenic Diet while staying in Ketosis if you choose your chocolate carefully. You can easily eat chocolate daily while following a ketogenic diet.
Most chocolates typically contain high amounts of fat, sugar and carbs which are not keto friendly. Another concern is that it’s very easy to over snack and indulge in chocolate and consume more than 1 serving.
Continue reading our guide to pick the perfect guild free keto chocolate snacks to indulge on when you get the chocolate cravings.
How Much Chocolate Is Eaten In Australia?
The Swiss are the world's biggest chocolate eaters, gorging on almost 9kg per capita each year.
Here Down Under we're not far behind – Australia and New Zealand have an average chocolate consumption of around 5kg per person per year.
The problem is that obesity is generally caused by eating too much and moving too little. If you consume high amounts of energy, particularly carbs, fat and sugars, but do not burn off the energy through exercise and physical activity, much of the surplus energy will be stored by the body as fat.
Unfortunately an estimated 2 in 3 (67%) Australians aged 18 and over were overweight or obese (36% were overweight but not obese, and 31% were obese). That's around 12.5 million adults.
Can Chocolates Be Keto Friendly?
Yes! There are a variety of types of Keto chocolates for different types of chocolate lovers. Eating Keto isn’t as restricting as common misconceptions say, Being able to enjoy an indulgent snack while not feeling guilty is the best part of keto-friendly products! Our keto chocolates are high protein, low sugar, low carb and some are gluten-free! Enjoy Healthier alternatives at Onketo with our Keto Chocolates.
Types of Keto Chocolate
When it comes to chocolate there’s usually 3 main flavours, milk, white and dark chocolate
White
For lovers of the smooth creamy side of chocolate. But more prone to the sweeter things in life. Pure cocoa butter is what makes your white chocolate a healthy one. Antioxidants are found in pure cocoa butter, it decides the flavour, nutrients and helps to eliminate toxins from your body.
Milk
For lovers of the perfect blend of cocoa and creamy goodness of chocolate. Used in most dessert recipes or for a quick nib on the go!
Dark
For the lovers of the rich taste of chocolate, low carb friendly cocoa with all the bitterness and decadence of our original sweet treats. Cocoa is the core ingredient of dark chocolate. The % of cocoa determines the bitterness and purity of the dark chocolate.
White chocolates and milk chocolates are known for higher quantities of sugar and carbohydrates. When it comes to the keto diet, you're strictly limited to consuming carbohydrates. Hence, your only chocolate option is dark chocolate on a keto diet.
We recommend dark chocolate with at least 70% cocoa and no more than 20-30gram serving to keep carbs and sugar at a minimum.
Benefits of Keto Chocolate Over Store Bought Chocolate

At the end of the day you might get chocolate cravings on a keto diet, instead of reaching for a regular chocolate bar that might throw you off ketosis, check out our range of keto friendly chocolate snacks.
When it comes to store bought chocolates you can see below one of the common brands like Cadbury Dairy Milk Chocolates would contain 57.3g of Carbs per 100g and 56g of sugar per 100g.
This is definitely a no no on the keto as it far exceeds the daily recommended carbohydrate intake of 50g and keeping snacks under 5g of carbs per serving.
We recommend substituting your store bought chocolate for brands such as Well Naturally’s No Sugar Dark Chocolate.
Made in Australia and no added Sugar these chocolates contain less than 5 times the carbs & sugar as Cadbury with only 10.4 g of carbs nad 9.1g of sugar per 100 grams of Chocolate.
