I have tried the Darryl-Lea chocolates and lollies and also the Cadbury's Lite chocolate. I found the Darrly-Lea chocolate to taste "different" to regular chocolate (I know, I know, I do have very high expectations) and am not sure if I like it. The Cadbury Lite tastes (and feels) exactly the same as regular chocolate (after an initial chemicalish taste which is undetectable once your taste buds adjust to the new taste and I only experienced it with my first taste) - however I am worried about the Nutrasweet content. I can eat up to one block a day (during induction) and remain in ketosis so this may be so for others as well. The laxitive effect lessens (and may eventually disappear) as your body adjusts to the chemical construction of the chocolate.

I am an absolute chocoholic and needed to find an alternative to regular chocolate to keep me on the 'straight and narrow' and these products do the trick. I can honestly say that I eat less now - due to the reduced carb cravings perhaps .
