Recs for Sugar Free Chocolates?

[RunningwithScissors]

Hi All,

Does anyone have a brand of high-end or boutique chocolates or other candy that you can recommend that are sugar free? My MIL is a diabetic and loves sweets of all kinds and I'd like to find something tasty for her for Christmas.

Thanks!

Fabulous, thank you!!!

You're welcome.

I've been to their store in CT, and the no-sugar caramel pecan patties are, in my opinion, better than the sugar ones, as they're a tiny bit less sweet. I bought the truffle selection for this year, and will eat as many of them myself as I can manage.

You go Mrs B! Chocolate and Sparklies...the two best things to ring in the new year!

The regular dark chocolate hedgehogs are so good. Wish they made them in the sugar-free version.

Russell Stover are also good...

Also Quest products. The frosted birthday cake cookies are delish!

Are you sure she can handle chocolates sweetened with sugar alcohols (maltitol, sorbitol, mannitol)? They commonly cause intestinal problems (gas, colic, diarrhea). I found out the hard way. Russell Stover were huge culprits.

I came here to also warn that eating too many can cause diarrhea so make sure your MIL eats them as treats and not all at once. If you can find some lower-sugar chocolates (e.g. not full of very sugary fillings) she might be able to eat them sparingly depending on how she treats her diabetes, the type of diabetes, etc.

Yeah this is me. I cannot do sugar free anything. Causes so many digestive issues for me

What you can look into is no sugar added chocolates. They are not sweetened with anything artificial. They taste not sweet so it might be an acquired taste. Let me try finding the company I ordered from in the past that was great. No sugar added and also vegan chocolate offered.

Here you go. Hope you find it helpful

Evolved Chocolate – EVOLVED CHOCOLATE

When it comes to chocolate, we believe it's food – not candy. That is why we use only the cleanest ingredients that are both organic and ethically sourced to create premium chocolates that combine function and flavor with zero compromises.

Here's an example of one of their offerings

ALMOND BUTTER KETO CUPS – EVOLVED CHOCOLATE

With 10g of healthy fats and 2g of net carbs, these creamy almond butter keto cups are delicious and ready to fuel you throughout your day.

I have had this and it is delicious

Oh wow, that's good to know. Thank you @missy @pearlsngems and @Uncut_Pages for the warning.

I already ordered the Munson's to be sent to her (they look so good!) before I read your warning, so I will definitely let her know to eat slowly or test one before continuing.

Thank you!

This is a huge help, thank you. (I'll probably try those Keto cups myself b/c I prefer bittersweet chocolate and have long wished to find a less-sweet alternative to Reeses.)
