Whether you decide to follow the fat fast or you are just looking for healthy low-carb treats, these fat bombs are a great option.
Compared to my other recipes, they are bigger but you can make them half size, or make half a batch. You can use any berries - raspberries, blackberries, blueberries or strawberries - all are delicious when covered in chocolate!
I included three options for homemade chocolate. Nutrition facts listed are for the first option and they will be similar for all three chocolate options.
Tips for Dark Chocolate
Instead of the chocolate in this recipe which uses unsweetened 100% chocolate, you can make a milder tasting chocolate by using 85%-90% chocolate. To do that, use the following ingredients:
- 300 g dark chocolate, at least 85% cacao (10.5 oz)
- 100 g cocoa butter (3.5 oz)
- 2 tbsp virgin coconut oil (30 ml)
- 1 vanilla bean or 1-2 tsp sugar-free vanilla extract
- Optional: liquid Stevia or powdered Erythritol, to taste
Finally, you can use my recipe for homemade chocolate that uses cacao powder. See this homemade dark chocolate for a step-by-step guide.

Ingredients (makes 14 servings)
Topping:
- 1 1/2 cup raspberries, fresh or frozen (180 g/ 6.5 oz)
- 28 almonds (30 g/ 1 oz)
Homemade chocolate:
Instructions
- Place the almonds in a pan and roast them for about 5 minutes to enhance the flavour. When done, transfer to a bowl and set aside to cool down.
- Place one almond into each raspberry, spread over a tray and place in the freezer for about an hour. You don't need to do this but it helps the chocolate solidify faster.
- Place a bowl over a pot of water and bring to boil. Keep on low heat and make sure the water doesn't touch the bowl (or use a double boiler). Place the cocoa butter, coconut oil and unsweetened chocolate into the bowl and let it melt while stirring.
- Once the chocolate mixture is melted, add the powdered Erythritol, unsweetened cacao, stevia and vanilla. (Note: Make sure to use powdered sweetener or the chocolate will be gritty). Mix until well combined and set aside.
- Place small muffin paper cups on a baking tray and pour 1 tablespoon of the chocolate into each of them.
- Add 2 frozen raspberries filled with almonds into each cup.
- Pour another tablespoon of the chocolate over them and make sure you cover the raspberries completely. The chocolate will start to solidify instantly.
- Place in the fridge for about 30 minutes or until set.
- Enjoy as soon as it's set.
- Store the fat bombs in the fridge to keep them fresh in the fridge for up to 3 days. Place any remaining fat bombs in the freezer to store for longer.
