Ingredients

  

• Sugar-free white chocolate chips or bars (8–10 ounces). Look for brands sweetened with erythritol, allulose, or stevia.
• Cocoa butter (optional, 1–2 tablespoons) to improve melt and snap if your chocolate seems thick.
• Coconut oil or cacao butter (1 tablespoon) to help with smoothness and setting.
• Freeze-dried raspberries (1/2 cup), lightly crushed. These add bright flavor without extra moisture.
• Fresh raspberries (1/4–1/3 cup), optional, for juicy bursts. Use sparingly to keep carbs low.
• Vanilla extract (1/2 teaspoon) for a classic white chocolate vibe.
• Flaky sea salt (a pinch), optional, to balance sweetness.
• Chopped nuts (2–3 tablespoons, optional), like macadamias, almonds, or pistachios.
• Unsweetened coconut flakes (1–2 tablespoons, optional) for texture.
• Sweetener to taste (optional). If your chocolate isn’t sweet enough, use powdered allulose or erythritol.
• Lemon zest (optional, 1/2 teaspoon) for a bright, bakery-style finish.

Method

 

1. Prep your pan: Line a small rimmed baking sheet or 8x10-inch pan with parchment paper. Leave some overhang for easy removal.
2. Melt the chocolate: Add sugar-free white chocolate chips and coconut oil to a heatproof bowl. Melt using a double boiler over low heat, stirring until smooth. Or microwave in 20–30 second bursts, stirring between each, until fully melted.
3. Adjust consistency: If the mixture seems thick, whisk in 1–2 teaspoons cocoa butter at a time until smooth and pourable.
4. Flavor it: Stir in vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Taste and add a tiny amount of powdered sweetener if needed. Keep it warm and fluid.
5. Spread it out: Pour the melted chocolate onto the lined pan. Use an offset spatula to spread it into an even layer about 1/8–1/4 inch thick.
6. Add raspberries: Sprinkle crushed freeze-dried raspberries evenly over the surface. If using fresh raspberries, tear them in half and place sparingly to avoid puddles of moisture.
7. Add crunchy toppings: Scatter chopped nuts and coconut flakes if using. Finish with a light pinch of flaky sea salt and optional lemon zest.
8. Set the bark: Transfer the pan to the fridge for 45–60 minutes, or the freezer for 20–30 minutes, until firm.
9. Break into pieces: Lift the bark out using the parchment. Snap into rustic shards with your hands or cut into neat squares with a sharp knife.
10. Serve or store: Enjoy right away, then store leftovers according to the instructions below.

How to Make It

1. Prep your pan: Line a small rimmed baking sheet or 8×10-inch pan with parchment paper. Leave some overhang for easy removal.
2. Melt the chocolate: Add sugar-free white chocolate chips and coconut oil to a heatproof bowl. Melt using a double boiler over low heat, stirring until smooth.

   Or microwave in 20–30 second bursts, stirring between each, until fully melted.

3. Adjust consistency: If the mixture seems thick, whisk in 1–2 teaspoons cocoa butter at a time until smooth and pourable.
4. Flavor it: Stir in vanilla extract and a pinch of salt. Taste and add a tiny amount of powdered sweetener if needed. Keep it warm and fluid.

   Snap into rustic shards with your hands or cut into neat squares with a sharp knife.

10. Serve or store: Enjoy right away, then store leftovers according to the instructions below.

Storage Instructions

• Fridge: Store in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. Layer the pieces with parchment to prevent sticking.
• Freezer: Keeps well for 2–3 months. Thaw a piece for a few minutes at room temperature before eating for the best texture.
• Avoid heat: Keto white chocolate softens quickly.

  Keep it cold until serving, especially in warm kitchens.

Benefits of This Recipe

• Low in carbs: Most of the sweetness comes from sugar-free white chocolate and a modest amount of raspberries, keeping net carbs down.
• Healthy fats: Cocoa butter, coconut oil, and nuts add satisfying fats that help with satiety.
• Portion control is easy: Break it into small pieces and enjoy a quick, controlled treat.
• No special equipment: A bowl, spatula, and baking sheet are all you need.
• Kid-friendly: Sweet, creamy, and colorful—great for family dessert trays.

What Not to Do

• Don’t overheat the chocolate: White chocolate scorches easily. Heat gently and stir often.
• Don’t add too much fresh fruit: Extra moisture can cause streaking or prevent the bark from setting well.
• Don’t skip the parchment: The bark will stick to the pan without it, and you’ll lose that clean snap.
• Don’t use granulated sweetener directly: Grainy sweetener won’t dissolve well. If you need more sweetness, use a powdered form.
• Don’t spread it too thick: Thick bark takes longer to set and can lose that crisp snap.

  Aim for a thin, even layer.

Alternatives

• Berry swap: Use freeze-dried strawberries, blueberries, or a mixed berry blend.
• Nut-free version: Skip the nuts and use pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, or extra coconut flakes.
• Flavor twists: Add almond extract instead of vanilla, or swirl in a sugar-free raspberry syrup for a marbled look.
• Chocolate combo: Drizzle with melted sugar-free dark chocolate for a black-and-white effect and deeper flavor.
• Dairy-free: Choose a vegan, dairy-free sugar-free white chocolate and use coconut oil or cacao butter.

FAQ

Is white chocolate keto-friendly?

Most regular white chocolate is not keto-friendly because it contains sugar. For this recipe, choose sugar-free white chocolate made with keto sweeteners like erythritol, allulose, or stevia.

Can I use fresh raspberries only?

You can, but use them sparingly. Fresh raspberries add moisture and may soften the bark over time.

Freeze-dried raspberries give more concentrated flavor and keep the texture crisp.

How do I stop the chocolate from seizing?

Keep water away from the chocolate and melt it slowly over low heat. Stir frequently and avoid steam getting into the bowl. If it thickens, a small amount of cocoa butter or coconut oil can help smooth it out.

What if my bark won’t set?

It may be too warm or too thick.

Place it in the freezer for 10–15 more minutes. If you added a lot of fresh fruit, that can slow setting; try using more freeze-dried fruit next time.

How many carbs are in a serving?

It depends on your chocolate brand and portion size. As a rough guide, a small piece (about 1 ounce) made with sugar-free chocolate and freeze-dried raspberries often lands around 2–4g net carbs.

Check your labels and calculate based on your exact ingredients.

Can I make this ahead for a party?

Yes. Make it up to a week ahead and keep it in the fridge, or freeze it for longer. Add flaky salt just before serving for the best crunch.

Do I need to temper the chocolate?

Tempering gives a glossy finish and a sharper snap, but it’s optional here.

Because we store the bark cold, the set will be firm enough without full tempering.

What’s the best way to break the bark?

Lift the chilled bark with the parchment and bend it gently to crack into pieces. For clean lines, use a warmed knife and press straight down.
