The higher the cacao percentage, the lower the sugar.

Keto rules

  • Choose 85% cacao or higher (90%+ is even better)
  • Stick to a couple of squares, not the bar
  • Sugar-free chocolate sweetened with erythritol is the safest bet

A little dark chocolate can satisfy a sweet tooth without wrecking ketosis.
