Locco Sugar-Free Keto Cocoa Powder (200 g), Sugar-free & Vegan, Hot Chocolate, Low Carb Drinks & Baking (Guarana)

I tried adding a teaspoon of Locco cocoa to my bowl of homemade breakfast mix (sorghum, nuts, seeds, berries) and was very happy with the result. It added a subtle but distinctive cocoa flavour.

This product barely tastes like hot chocolate. I get that it's made to be low fat, low sugar, low calorie - but it's sadly also low taste. The chocolate flavour is very weak, but it has a strange overall taste which I feel is down to the mixture of sweeteners and guarana. I can accept guarana making the product a bit bitter, but the overall taste profile of this lo-cal product is disappointing.It's not a completely inedible product, as it's perfectly fine to add it to other foods rather than consuming it as a hot chocolate. It was fine sprinkled on breakfast cereal, and I dare say it's probably okay used in baking where you want something 'chocolatey' without adding the calories. As a beverage, I'd say look elsewhere. 3*

This sugar-free keto cocoa powder is perfect for those looking for a low-carb, vegan-friendly hot chocolate or baking ingredient.

Absolutely disgusting 🤮

Threw it away.

Taste-wise this is a relative of hot chocolate - not a close relative, one of those cousins you only see at weddings and funerals. And I quite like it. Think bitter chocolate mixed with coconut. You do get a rather thin drink, so you don't get the rich smoothness of chocolate as you drink it. Easy to mix with no lumps.However my son said it was disgusting!The very low calorie count is most welcome and if I had a bigger back I'd probably experiment with using it in baking.It does feel very expensive for what it is.

Tastes okay and is easy enough to make. I got this for my wife who is on a low-sugar, low-carb diet. She didn't like it, but my teenage daughter (who only likes the cheapest hot chocolate) did like it.

This for me is not a substitute for making a hot chocolate, a hot chocolate needs the milk / sugar / fat and I'm just not sure that this is a good equivalent. For me this works in either baking or just to sprinkle a little for flavouring e.g. over oats but as a standalone product, I wouldn't say it was amazing
