Everyone loves Hershey’s chocolate syrup and their sugar-free option is a tasty option to try. It does contain artificial sweeteners but is a good option for someone on a budget or just looking to use it occasionally. Learn more at thehersheycompany.com.

I have used this brand for years before the NuNaturals brand came out and I personally love it. It does contain sucralose but has no aspartame or other artificial sweeteners. It’s also certified gluten-free, calorie-free, carb-free, and fat-free. It also has no sugar alcohols that can sometimes cause bloating and digestive troubles. You can find it at supermarkets and learn more at waldenfarms.com.

If you’re a fan of Walmart (as most of us are), give their Great Value brand of sugar-free chocolate syrup a shot. I find it tastes identical to the Hershey’s brand but actually has fewer calories and less troublesome sugar alcohols. It is rich, thick, and creamy and costs under $2. Note it does contain possible allergens along with artificial sweeteners, so I’d suggest using it sparingly. Learn more at walmart.com.

This syrup is similar in ingredients to Hershey’s and Great Value’s sugar-free syrups. It has a thick, creamy texture with no fat or sugar. It does contain sugar alcohols and sucralose (Splenda), but has no other artificial sweeteners. It’s also recommended by Dr. Bernstein, author of “The Diabetes Solution,” and is a popular product for many diabetics. Learn more or purchase at amazon.com. I realize many people shy away from artificial sweeteners or even from a natural option like stevia, but if you're looking for a lower calorie chocolate syrup that won't raise your blood sugar, these brands make a great option.
