Satisfying a sweet tooth on the keto diet can be a challenge, as the demands of the high-fat, low-carb diet can seem restrictive but brands like Duncan Hines are supporting consumers with keto-friendly cake mixes. The cake mixes boast five net carbs each, plus zero added sugar and a moderate amount of protein. These keto-friendly cake mixes are set to be launched soon in flavors like Double Chocolate and Birthday Cake, plus a Walnut Fudge Brownie Mix, all of which come packaged in cups that are just a few ounces, offering the perfect serving for one.
The microwaveable dessert cups are easy to prepare for a quick, easy and compliant keto-friendly snack.
