Best High Sugar Keto Protein Bars

Plant-based through and through, IQBAR’s Salted Caramel Chip leans on pea protein and nuts for substance, then finishes with a restrained salted-caramel-and-chocolate vibe.

A prebiotic blend of soluble tapioca and vegetable fibers keeps total carbs low at 9 grams, while almonds, macadamias, and a bit of coconut oil supply satisfying fats for 170 calories.

Sweetness comes via stevia—no sugar alcohols—with just 1 gram of sugar. The label is tidy: 16 ingredients with just one additive by our count, plus a full day’s worth of vitamin E and useful iron and magnesium.

There’s also a modest sprinkle of lion’s mane, a functional flourish rather than the headline act.

Atlas leans into peanut butter and dark chocolate but rewrites the sugar script. The protein is fully plant‑based—a rice‑and‑almond base with crunchy pea‑protein crisps—boosted by peanut butter and peanut flour.

The chew comes from soluble tapioca fiber (a refined binder from cassava) and a little plant‑derived glycerin to keep things soft, while sweetness relies on allulose, a low‑calorie sugar that behaves like the real thing, plus concentrated monk fruit extract.

Fats are mostly peanut‑driven, with small amounts of cocoa butter and coconut oil for structure. Net result: a vegan, gluten‑free, keto‑friendly bar with 15 grams of protein, 180 calories, only 0.

5 grams of sugar, and a quietly impressive 38% Daily Value of iron from the cocoa components.

EPIC Provisions’ Bison with Beef + Sea Salt + Pepper keeps things strikingly simple: meat-based protein, pantry spices, and a macro profile you almost never see in bars. It’s 110 calories with 10g protein, 7g fat, 2g carbs, and 0g sugar—savory by design, not sweet.

Of the eight total ingredients, two are small curing helpers to keep it safe on the go: lactic acid (a fermentation-derived acid that lowers pH) and cultured celery powder (a plant source of nitrite used in meat curing).

The rest is what you’d expect from a peppered jerky—bison, beef, sea salt, black pepper, onion, and garlic—without syrups, sugar alcohols, or high-intensity sweeteners.
