Notes
Nutrition
How Many Carbs In Cocoa?
Considering you don’t use much cocoa powder it is very low-carb per serving.
One tablespoon of cocoa has 3 grams of carbohydrates, and only 1 gram of that is net carbs.
Cocoa is very low calorie and low-carb it sometimes ignored by those on a keto diet due to the bad wrap high sugar chocolate gives it.
Cocoa powder is keto-friendly and has a lot of nutrition benefits for low-carb diets.
You can buy keto-friendly chocolate and we make our cocoa sweet by using natural sweeteners and sugar substitutes.

I don’t have cocoa powder… would unsweetened baker’s chocolate chunks (melted) work instead?
We can’t be sure about that Alex. One is powder and the other will be a liquid when you melt it. You can try but we haven’t tried it and don’t think that would work.
