I am making an honest effort to eat healthier, and I’ve almost completely cut sugar out of my diet. There’s one problem with that – I like chocolate! So today I tried out some sugar free chocolate recipes, made with organic ingredients. The one pictured below has sea salt sprinkled on top and is delicious.
That looks so good! I didn’t even know that you could make sugar free chocolate!
Me either. I had no idea and it looks great!
Mmm that sea salt looks great! Looks super easy, I’ll have to try to make it myself. 🙂
Sugar free that is a plus!
This looks so yummy.
Yum! I may need to make some of this, I have all the ingredients.
yum have to try this!
Mmmm, that looks very tasty!
I would love to give it a try. I am trying to eat healthier to!
YUM! I love chocolate!
Looks too good to be sugar free! YUM!
Looks so tasty and sugar free would be great for my niece she’s diabetic
Ooh.. love salted chocolate. That looks awesome!
I had no idea chocolate was even possible without sugar! How neat! Totally pinteresting this for future use! Thank you!!!
Really, it’s delicious? I never would have thunk it!
It is if you like dark chocolate! I love dark chocolate so I really like it, especially with coconut.
That looks sooo yummy!
thanks for paving the way for sugar free chocolate for me. I love chocolate also.
great idea to use agave!
Looks delicious but I’ve never head sugar free chocolate before. Interesting.
It looks wonderful, thanks!
Looks amazing Sam!! I have a major sweet tooth and chocolate is my favorite.
did you say sugar-free chocolate? I’m in!
I love the sweeteners you used in place of sugar. I bet it’s delicious!
I was really curious about this recipe but I wonder why you feel honey is better than white sugar? The information I have is, that although honey is less refined it has higher calories than sugar and still is roughly 55% fructose.
Agave can be 55-90% fructose – that doesnt sound good at all!
Great questions! While honey does contain fructose and has higher calories than equal amounts of white sugar, honey is far sweeter and requires less to get the same amount of sweetness. The honey in this recipe added 21 calories to the entire recipe. Had I used white sugar, I would have needed a tbsp which has 46 calories. And as you said…honey is less refined than sugar.
Agave nectar has a lower glycemic index than sugar, which means it is less likely to cause a spike in your blood sugar. Many people believe these spikes in blood sugar can trigger the fat storing mechanism in the body, which means agave is better if you are trying to control or lose weight.
Thanks for stopping by and I appreciate your comments.
January 30-This Recipe sounds very good. I am curious about the calorie count of cocoanut oil. Is it much lower than sunflower oil for instance?
Yummy!! Thanks for the recipe! 🙂
Oh my gosh that looks so good!!!
What! Sugar free chocolate, I am so in! I have a weakness for chocolate. I have actually tried chocolate and sea salt and love the combination of sweet and salty. Thank you for this recipe 🙂
That looks delicious!
Wow! I don’t know why but I am really surprised that it is THAT simple to make chocolate! Thanks for sharing

I enjoy adding salt to chocolate. It really works well. I already use agave in my coffee and I have been looking for recipes in which I can sub it in for sugar. Great stuff!

Wow sounds delish , i will be trying this out for sure , Thanks for sharing 🙂
Wow!–This chocolate looks do good. I, like you and many others, am trying to cut down on sugar and find it difficult as I also love chocolate. Can anyone tell me what is Agave nectar and where can I buy it? I want to try out this chocolate treat asap.

This is really cool because I had no idea that sugarless chocolate was even possible. But it’s great for all kinds of reasons.
