Keto Chewy Salted Caramel Candy

Discover the delightful world of Keto indulgence with our Keto salted caramel candy—a treat that combines the creamy allure of caramel with a touch of savory saltiness. These chewy candy pieces, transformed into exquisite caramel bites, provide the perfect solution for those seeking a Low-Carb alternative to satisfy their sweet tooth. In this article, we'll delve into whether these chewy candy pieces are suitable for Halloween, how you can personalize this recipe to your liking, and the best way to store any leftover candy.

Are these chewy candy pieces suitable for Halloween?

Absolutely! Our Keto salted caramel candy is a fantastic addition to your Halloween festivities. While Halloween often entices us with sugary delights, these chewy caramel bites offer a Keto-friendly alternative that's perfect for the occasion. Their delectable combination of creamy caramel and flakey salt provides a burst of flavor that will captivate your taste buds without straying from your Low-Carb lifestyle. These bite-sized candies are easy to share with friends and family during Halloween celebrations, allowing you to enjoy the holiday while sticking to your dietary goals.

How to customize this recipe?

Customization is the key to making this recipe your own. Consider adding a dash of seasonal spice, such as cinnamon or nutmeg, to infuse your caramel bites with a warm, autumnal flavor. Chopped nuts, like pecans or almonds, can be mixed into the caramel mixture to add a delightful crunch and extra depth of flavor. These candies are highly adaptable, allowing you to personalize them to suit your taste while staying true to your Low-Carb commitments. What we don't recommend is altering the types and amounts of sweeteners used in the recipe. This is because not all sweeteners act the same when cooked- or, in this case, caramelized. Using other sweeteners might result in crystalized or very soft candy.

How to store the leftover candy?

To maintain the freshness of your Keto salted caramel candy, store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to two weeks. For extended storage, individually wrap each candy piece in parchment paper and freeze them. Frozen candies can maintain their quality for several months. When you're ready to indulge, allow a piece to thaw at room temperature for a few minutes, and you'll be treated to the delectable blend of caramel and salt once again.

Recipe Steps

steps 5

2 h 30 min

  • Step 1

    Add the butter and cream to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave until just melted and set aside. Line a container with parchment paper and set aside.
    Step 1
  • Step 2

    To a saucepan, add the allulose, xylitol, and water. Mix and place over medium heat until the mixture dissolves and starts turning golden. If you have a food thermometer, the mixture should measure 300F/150C.
    Step 2
  • Step 3

    Add in the warm cream mixture and whisk well. Cook until the caramel comes together and starts turning into a caramel color. Simmer until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon without falling off too fast (about 10 minutes). Remove from the heat and whisk in the vanilla and salt.
    Step 3
  • Step 4

    Pour the caramel immediately into the lined container and transfer to the refrigerator. Chill for at least 30 minutes, ideally 2 hours. Once firm, take it out of the refrigerator.
    Step 4
  • Step 5

    Slice into 30 pieces and sprinkle with flakey salt. Serve at room temperature.

    Why do you say methadone?? Maybe, because the caramels could be addictive. 🤔. I have health issues…. Just curious!!!

      If you have NO issues with the ingredients listed, you will be fine. That person just used the word “ Methadone” loosely meaning to treat/satisfy/feed their addictions to “sweets” I’m sure. Just a “careless” descriptor or use of the word. Nothing you should take seriously here. Enjoy trying this recipe, I certainly will on this rainy day in the kitchen cooking. This is on my list to make today! Warm gooey, salty comfort bite!

      It makes 30… I’m probably eating 30. So that’s 60 total carbs. I am envious of people who can just have 1 or 2

        That’s why I stay away from stuff like this, if I could only eat one I wouldn’t have the weight problems I do

      Is there a substitute for xylitol?

        Allulose and Xylitol are hard to get in the UK, can I just substitute Erythritol?

        What size container do you pour Carmel in?

        • Hmg72

          Hmg72 a year ago

          The bulk of this recipe is a half-cup liquid (heavy cream) and 1 cup + a 1/4 cup of sweeteners, so all that will dissolve to less than 1.5cups I’m guessing (butter and all else added). So, I think tiny container maybe a 4 -5 cups loaf pan, small baking dish, storage container for food leftovers. That’s what I’m gonna try. Enough to hold the recipe but small enough to make the candies tall/thick enough. You certainly don’t want to use a very shallow wide container. I’m going to try a 4 cup dish, an extra large ramekin or One of my ELLO storage containers or 4 cup Rubbermaid brilliance containers that I have to start, and just eye ball it.
