Le Chic Kéto Signature Tip

Insert one keto-cherry (sugar-free, dried or frozen) into the center of each truffle. This will add intrigue and emphasize the flavor.

Variations with macro changes:

More Cherry. +1/4 tsp extract (0 g macros). Decorate your dessert with notes of freshness by adding a quarter teaspoon of cherry extract.

Chocolate. +1/2 tsp cocoa (+0.2 g net carbs, +0.1 g fat per truffle). Create a rich chocolate flavor by adding half a teaspoon of natural cocoa powder.

Pure Almond. Remove cocoa (-0.4 g net carbs per truffle). Want to enjoy the pure taste of almond? Simply remove the cocoa powder, thus reducing the carbohydrates by 0.4 g per truffle serving.
