What is Eton Mess?
Eton mess is a traditional English dessert that combines softly whipped cream, strawberries and crunchy meringue pieces. The crunchy meringue is really what makes this such a popular dessert and also quite high in sugar!
One of the reasons Eton mess is such a popular dessert is that it is so easy to put together. If you purchase the meringue pieces, it can come together in 10-15 minutes, with no need to turning on an oven. It really is an impressive dessert with very little work involved – what could be better!
Enter our keto Eton mess, which is still crunchy and delicious, without all that added sugar. By using our new favourite meringue alternative, Noosa Cookhouse collagen crumbles, you can still enjoy this fresh and summery dessert.

It is honestly like the crunchy keto-friendly meringue of your dreams! Dan is a big lover of things like meringue, pavlova and marshmallows, but all of these things tend to be loaded with sugar. Enter these crunchy little collagen crumbles with only 2-3g of carbs per (very generous) serve.

Keto Summer Desserts
Summer is the perfect time for lovely fresh fruit, and we love to enjoy some berries at this time as they are in season and lower in sugar. A favourite dessert can be as simple as some fresh berries served with whipped or double cream – perfection! Or you can take that simple dessert to the next level by converting it into this keto Eton mess!
As we celebrate Christmas in the summertime in Australia we tend to do more entertaining at this time of year, and that can mean desserts! Here are some of our favourite keto-friendly, low sugar desserts that are perfect for summer entertaining;
Tips
- You can use strawberries or other fruit if you prefer. I just love the pop of colour and tartness from raspberries.
- This is best made just prior to serving, as the collagen crumbles will soften once exposed to the cream. You will find the next day the crunch has been lost.
- If you prefer you could make one large bowl of Eton mess rather than individual servings.
Suggestions
- If you prefer not to have fruit you could make this into a chocolate flavoured version by adding some grated dark chocolate in place of the raspberries. This would pair really well with the chocolate collagen crumbles.
- Alternately it would be great with coffee or sugar-free caramel rather than fruit also – the options are endless!
- It would be really pretty to decorate the Eton mess with freeze dried raspberries crumbled or a sprinkle of frees dried raspberry powder for a real pop of colour.
