Dessert ideas

Sugarbeat

So I just found out this week we're planning a super high sugar dessert for one gal's birthday, and then another one for next week. I really, truly, don't want these. I don't. If I don't have an alternative, though, I'm afraid I'll give in to the social obligation to eat them. Does anyone have a good sugar free, very low carb dessert? The ideas I got while Googling were unimpressive.

A few weeks ago I made my mom a birthday cake, and myself a dessert to eat as well. I made this: http://www.djfoodie.com/Blackberry-Clafoutis I thought it was excellent, but I have broken through the 'I want sugar' cycle -- for the most part. My mom and dad has some, and they thought it was good too. It is a little soft, not cake like.

That sounds awesome, thanks!

I usually scout Pinterest for some ideas, try "Keto or paleo deserts" there, few good ones.

I JUST posted this yesterday in REDDIT-KETO! I have tried several, and it's greatto have options!

Briliant! Keto Chocolate Cake-In A Cup-3 Minute Miracle + MORE Desserts
Not to sound sexist..but it took a guy (Craig Clarke of RULED.ME) to invent a fast "portion controlled" way to have Chocolate cake dessert…almost instantly!

Cravings can rule us.. a desire for dessert, a need for chocolate, it's late at night… try this.

EVERYTHING is mixed AND eaten in a coffeecup. Microwaved for 60-75 seconds.

AND you can alter it, to taste…less cocoa, more almond flour, skip the coconut flour, add some instant coffee…liquid stevia….cooking is a science..so read the comments in his page to see what others did. This is high in calories IMHO but very Low Carbs for most of us. Topped with heavy whipped cream, sprinkle of almonds or walnuts…heaven in your mouth! ..and keeps you from diverting off the Keto path.

I first found his site www.ruled.me and was amazed how much free info lovingly shared, he knows his stuff! I encourage supporting him with PayPal to get his diet plans/menus (He only asks for a small donation..totally worth it….pay it forward)

Also see his: brownies, eggnog, donuts, french toast, cookies, all Keto true.

MORE ON DESSERTS: what got me to a full-on Venus of Willendorf shape -look it up <grin>
was my real love of sweets… 40 yeas ago Adkin's diet worked for me, but all we had was sugar free jello with whipped cream. I needed CAKE..fudge…now we have it all.

Todays KETO recipes are amazon..besides ruled.me is www.Ketogenicwoman.com..a lady with a 100 pound journey, and some great 'slaw recipes and desserts.

Keto Root Beer Float-Diet root beer + 1-2 tablespoons heavy cream..chill till icy, enjoy.
(also testing home made root beer from concentrate to avoid Aspartame)
Keto Fudge! Many kinds online- based on: cream cheese, coconut oil, PB, avocado

I always forget about Pinterest, lol. I'll have to check them out.

KetoCutie

Definitely check pinterest. My board is here: https://www.pinterest.com/melismusing/paleoprimalketo/

There's a recipe for a keto chocolate pot de creme that I am dying to try.

Also, another go to is just a simple chocolate fluff with whipping cream, cocoa, almond extract and a little bit of your preferred sweetener. You could add coffee to that and make it a mocha fluff.

And, now I want dessert. lol

Yeah, mug cakes are great and there are bunch of varieties, same with MIMs

I second the ruled.me site! He has a great list of desserts. I made his low carb cookie butter and was in heaven!!!!
