About Low Carb Food Co
What is Low-Carb Food Co?
Low Carb Food Co is a UK bakery and online low-carb food shop that makes it easier to follow a keto or low-carb lifestyle. We bake our own range of low-carb bread, rolls, baguettes, focaccia, pizza bases, pasta and flour in our bakery in Flint, North Wales, and we stock a small selection of trusted low-carb brands alongside it. Everything we offer is chosen to help you cut carbs without giving up the food you enjoy.
What makes Low-Carb Food Co different from other low-carb shops?
Our baked goods are the heart of what we do. Unlike many low-carb breads, ours are made with no preservatives, no palm oil, no seed oils, no additives and no added sweeteners. They are baked in our own UK bakery rather than mass produced, which is why they hold up as everyday bread rather than a compromise, and the range is built on years of first-hand low-carb experience.
What do you sell?
Our own range covers low-carb bread (sliced loaves, rolls, seeded bloomers and sandwich baguettes), focaccia, pizza bases, pasta and low-carb flour. Alongside this we stock Fatt snack bars and Natural Ketosis ready meals. You can also buy discounted bread and pizza bundles to stock up.
What brands do you stock?
We stock our own Low-Carb Food Co range plus Fatt snack bars and Natural Ketosis ready meals.
Carbs and Diets
How many carbs are in your products?
All of our low-carb baked goods contain less than 3g of carbohydrates per 100g, which is under 3 percent net carbs. Most sit even lower. The exact figures for each product are shown on the individual product pages.
Are your products keto?
Yes. With under 3g of carbs per 100g across the baked goods range, our products are suitable for keto and low-carb ways of eating, along with LCHF (low-carb, high fat), Atkins and Banting style approaches. They make it easy to keep familiar meals like sandwiches, toast and pizza on the menu while keeping your carbs low.
What actually counts as low-carb, and how many carbs a day should I aim for?
Low-carb usually means eating fewer than 100g of carbohydrates a day, while stricter keto is around 20g to 50g of net carbs a day. Our products are designed to fit comfortably within both, so you can build meals without using up your daily carb allowance on bread alone. Numbers may vary depending on your personal needs.
Does your low-carb bread actually taste like normal bread?
Yes, most of our customers say it does. Because our bread is baked rather than mass produced, it slices, toasts and feels like the real thing. Many customers tell us they would not know it was low-carb, which is why our rolls and loaves hold customer ratings between 4 and 4.9 stars.
Ingredients and Allergens
What ingredients do you never use?
We never use palm oil, seed oils such as sunflower, rapeseed or canola, artificial preservatives, added refined sugar or sweeteners.
Is your low-carb bread gluten free?
No. Our baked goods, pasta and flour all contain gluten and are not suitable for anyone who needs to avoid it. Full ingredient and allergen information is listed on every product page.
Are your products suitable for vegetarians and vegans?
Our low-carb baked goods and pasta are suitable for vegetarians but are not vegan, as they contain egg. Our low-carb flour is suitable for both vegetarians and vegans.
Do your products contain nuts?
Our low-carb flour may contain nuts. Please always check the allergen information on each product page before ordering.
Storage, Freezing and Cooking
Can I freeze your bread?
Yes. All of our bread and baked goods freeze well. We recommend freezing bread as soon as it arrives to keep it at its best, and slicing before freezing for convenience.
Does freezing change the texture or taste?
No. Our bread keeps its texture and flavour after freezing, so you can freeze on arrival and use it as you need it.
How do I defrost the bread?
Toast straight from frozen in around 3 to 4 minutes, or leave it to defrost at room temperature before eating.
How do I cook the pizza bases?
Add your toppings to the base while it is still frozen, then bake for 10 to 12 minutes in a preheated oven at 170C fan.
Do the ready meals need freezing?
No. The Natural Ketosis ready meals are cooked sous vide, sealed and shelf stable, so they can be stored in the cupboard rather than frozen.

Can I set up a repeat order or subscription?
