Ward off the temptation of Halloween with these amazing low carb candy recipes. You can enjoy the sweets and still stick to your healthy low carb, keto diet!
Halloween is around the corner and you know what that means! Candy, candy, candy. And temptation, temptation, temptation. I don’t know about you, but I do let my kids go trick-or-treating and collect all the candy and chocolate they can carry in their plastic pumpkins. And then we put it all in one big bag and dole it out so slowly that it often lasts close to a year. And when they are not looking, I do throw some of it away. I simply don’t have the heart to take Halloween away from them altogether.
But if you have a major sweet tooth, having all that candy in your house can be a huge source of stress. You know that stuff is awful junk and so bad for both your health and your weight loss, but it’s calling your name. Well, you know what the best solution for that is? Your own healthy, homemade versions of the sugary stuff. I love making my own low carb candy and chocolate and I’ve gathered together the best recipes I could find from all the best low carb bloggers. Believe me, with these recipes, you won’t miss a thing. And your kids might want to break into YOUR candy stash this year!

I’ve been scared of making candy because of the whole temp-taking and seizing chocolate things. But since I make my own soap, for goodness sakes, I should be able to do this!

What is the picture in the lower right hand corner of your photo collage? Its really smoothe fudge-like looking squares in a glass bowl. I’ve gone through the whole list of recipe links (and printed off several of them to make later!) but I can’t seem to find that one. Thanks!
Carolyn says
It’s not fudge, it’s Kate’s Sport Gummies. That may be why you couldn’t find it. http://kateshealthycupboard.com/gluten-free-recipes/chocolate-coconut-sport-gummies/
