Le Chic Kéto Signature Tip

Leave one whole blanched almond on top of each truffle. This touch will highlight the elegance of the keto-truffle and virtuously complete the composition.

Create your unique flavor – each change in the recipe opens up new nuances:

More Almond. Add 5 g of almond butter (+0.2 g net carbs, +0.8 g fat). Your truffle will gain a rich nutty flavor and a more tender, creamy texture.

Crunchy Option. Add 5 g of roasted almond pieces to the mixture (+0.1 g net carbs, +0.6 g fat). Result: a delightful crunch in every texture.

Soft Version. Replace part of the flour with 1 tbsp of ground almond (-0.2 g net carbs, -0.8 g fat). The truffle texture will become airier and lighter.
