As the ketogenic diet continues to increase in popularity, it's no wonder that we can now find more keto desserts to buy at the store! Now, because of this, you can treat yourself to something sweet without having to spend any extra time in the kitchen cooking or baking!

But, you may be wondering how to know exactly what products at the grocery store are actually low in carbs and keto-friendly. Well, we have that all sorted out for you! In this list, you'll find the most highly recommended keto candies, keto cakes, keto chocolates, keto cookies, and even keto ice creams!

Keep in mind that everyone follows different variations of a keto diet and that while some dessert products don't work for you, they may work for someone else! After all, ketosis is a metabolic state and not simply a list of "yes" and "no" foods.

Most of the options we listed use alternative ingredients, transforming to abide by either the keto diet or low carb diet. 

For example, using a low carb sweetener or flour alternative are great ways to make your sweets keto friendly, creating a difference in the overall net carbs.

Lily's Chocolate Bars

Lily's Sweets has been around since 2010 and has several chocolate bar varieties to choose from. One of the best things about their products is that it uses stevia as it's main sweetening agent.

The bars come in flavors like creamy milk chocolate, salted caramel, hazelnut milk chocolate, and salted almond chocolate. They even have extra dark chocolates that taste about as good as an artisanal chocolate bar!

If you're on the lookout for low-carb desserts to buy and stock up on this month, then Lily's Creamy Milk Chocolate is an easy choice.

It does taste "lighter" compared to traditional non-sugar-free chocolates, but the texture and flavor are hard to beat considering that a serving contains only 2 grams of net carbs.

Rebel Ice Cream

Rebel ice cream is probably the lowest glycemic index ice cream available in stores, but it's hard to tell it apart from homemade ice cream because of its fantastic taste and texture. The mint flavor of their Mint Chip is just right and the chocolate chips are equally satisfying. If you're trying to introduce keto-friendly ice cream to your family without needing to explain what's in it, then give this pint a try! 10/10 worth every penny.

Halo Top Keto Chocolate Cheesecake

One of 7 Halo Tops' keto series, this keto chocolate cheesecake ice cream is a solid answer to the whole "should I have cheesecake or ice cream for dessert?" dilemma.

It's decadent and the Chocolate Cheesecake flavor is everything you can expect a chocolate cheesecake-themed ice cream should be. If you want us to paint a picture, it is basically a rich chocolate ice cream with cheesecake bits made with actual cream cheese, which is what gives their pints a huge boost in fat and protein content.

Compared to the other flavors, this one does have the highest amount of net carbs per serving, so if you pick this flavor then please be sure you revisit your daily macro budget to make sure you're still well within the state of ketosis.

Other flavors in this series that we think you and the family would enjoy: Caramel Butter Pecan, Peanut Butter Chocolate, White Chocolaty Macadamia, Berry Swirl, Banana Cream Pie, and Jelly Donut.

HighKey Keto Mini Cookies

A good chocolate chip cookie may be one of the things that you sincerely miss while following a low-carb, ketogenic diet. Thankfully, though, you do not have to miss out on your favorite childhood snack!

These cookies have a crunch and crumbly texture that's similar to a shortbread cookie but have the enticing flavors of vanilla, butter, and almonds. They actually taste like mini Chips Ahoy, except these ones won't spike your blood sugar level or kick you out of ketosis. Each pack includes about 16 mini cookies and each serving contains 2 grams of net carbs.

12. NUI Chocolate Chip Cookies

NUI Chocolate Chip Cookies

NUI cookies actually debuted in Shark Tank back in 2018, when the co-founders Kristoffer Quiaoit and Victor Macias got a $300,000 investment from guest shark, Alex Rodriguez.

Each serving of their popular cookies only has 4 grams of net carbs, which is a fair deal if you factor in just how soft and chewy these keto-compliant cookies are. One of the best ways to enjoy these would be to either pop it in the microwave for a few seconds until warm, or use these to make a keto ice cream sandwich (just take a pick from the many ice cream varieties we mentioned earlier!).

13. Fat Snax Double Chocolate Chip

Fat Snax Double Chocolate Chip

Up next on low-carb desserts you can buy at your local Whole Foods, are these keto double chocolate chip cookies by Fat Snax. They have 4 flavors that contain minimal grams of net carbs and have a good amount of fat per serving (between 8-9 grams depending on which variety you choose).

We would highly suggest the double chocolate chip flavor, for a number of reasons: it's gluten-free, grain-free, and it tastes like a brownie. Doesn't get much better than that, right?! Yum!

Other flavor recommendations are their Chocolate Chip, Lemony Lemon, and Peanut Butter.

Per serving: 100 calories, 9g fat, 2g net carbs, 2g protein

Duncan Hines Keto Walnut Fudge Brownie

When you hear Duncan Hines, the first thought you have is probably cake mixes and pie fillings; but, did you know that they've also developed a line of keto-friendly cups?

There are 3 flavors available: Walnut Fudge Brownie, Double Chocolate Cake, and Birthday Cake. Basically, you just add butter and water in the cup, mix it, and cook it in the microwave.

Among the 3, Walnut Fudge Brownie is typically considered to have the best flavor and texture. It's moist, rich, and contains just the right amount of walnuts! Our suggestion? Kick it up a notch and serve with some low-carb cream cheese frosting or even a dollop of ice cream.

Per serving: 380 calories, 23g fat, 5g net carbs, 10g protein

Available at: Walmart, Kroger

15. SmartCake Chocolate

SmartCake Chocolate

SmartCakes are about as big as a small muffin and taste like a not-too-sweet cake. We recommend warming these babies up in the microwave first or leaving them in the fridge a bit (if you prefer your cakes cold) to take it up a notch!

This would be best enjoyed as an afternoon snack, preferably with a cup of bulletproof coffee since the cakes aren't as moist as traditional cakes.

Per serving: 38 calories, 2.5g fat, 0g net carbs, 4g protein

Available at: Walmart
