Some of us on the keto diet spend all week being perfect keto angels, eating our eggs and avocado, until our cheat day when we can dive into our favorite cheat of choice. Most of us don’t feel too great after a cheat day though. All the sugars and carbs make us go “blugh.” But what if it doesn’t have to be this way? What if there was a sweet cheat you could dive into without the guilt? These companies are serving up some low-carb desserts that are sure to please.
Killer Whey’s1 Protein Ice Cream
Idaho-based Killer Whey is not your mom and pop’s ice cream shop. Their ice cream is not only low-carb, but features a whopping 44 grams of protein per pint! Their ice cream contains MCT oil sourced completely from coconuts. Miraculously, the ice cream has zero added sugars, with only 2 grams of sugar per serving that comes naturally from the cream and whey. For a touch of sweet, they add erythritol and stevia.
Killer Whey gives its ice cream flavors snappy names like “Chilla in Vanilla” and “No Judge Mint.” Established in 2016, Killer Whey calls their product “protein dessert” – a new concept the fitness world is likely to embrace.
Fit Donut2 – Where Every Day Can be a Cheat Day!
These mouth-watering donuts are like protein bars, except without the additives and preservatives. They’re for people with specific dietary needs such as diabetes, allergies, and metabolic disorders, and they’re sure to attract the fitness crowd looking for a sweet dessert without the sugars and carbs that can knock them off their fitness plans.
Fit Donuts are low-carb, low-fat, and low-sodium, with 10 grams of protein per donut. Each donut has just 100 calories, and only 8-9 grams of carbs – half that of a Krispy Kreme, which clocks in at 21 grams of carbs per serving.
Patrons with specific dietary concerns, such as those with allergies, diabetes, or metabolic disorders, can enjoy donuts without the guilt. The main ingredients? Almond and cashew milk, almond flour, spelt flour, coconut flour, whey protein, oats, stevia, honey, powdered peanut butter, cocoa powder, sprinkles, and sea salt. That’s it. They’re putting a new meaning to the term “donut,” and plenty of health-minded patrons are loving it.
These are just a couple of companies leading the way into a healthier future. For those who are trying to lose weight, stay fit, or simply cut sugars, low-carb, high-protein dessert companies are serving up some sweets without the guilt.
