How to make a layered cheesecake
There are two simple layers. One berry layer and a simple cheesecake layer.
Sugar-free berry cheesecake ice blocks are a wonderfully smooth and creamy healthy frozen dessert that has no added sugar. The only sugar (3g) in the nutrition panel, comes from the low sugar berries.
It's often ice cream that can ruin your macro goals for the day. But as soon as you learn how to make healthy frozen desserts such as these layered popsicles, keto chocolate lasagna or peanut butter popsicles, the easier it is to stay on track with your goals.
Having a few single-serve keto desserts in your fridge or freezer can become a lifeline when a sugar craving strikes. Individual mini keto raspberry swirl cheesecakes or mini lemon meringue pies are two popular keto recipes to make for beginners.
Serving suggestions
You may want to dip the frozen ice cream in dark chocolate or sugar-free chocolate once they are completely frozen.
You could also sprinkle with dried raspberries, chopped nuts or dip in a sugar-free caramel sauce.
This is a great recipe for your children to get involved in the kitchen. They'll have a fun time creating the coloured layers. You could even swirl them with a skewer before popping them into the freezer to set instead of layers.
How to cut the carbs further
If you want them to be even lower in sugar, you could omit the berry layer and use lemons or limes. This is perfect if you are on a low-carb diet, keto diet or simply wanting to reduce the impact food has on your blood sugars.
To make this quick substitution, simply add some lemon or lime zest and some juice to the cream cheese layer, and you would have a citrus cheesecake ice block.
More easy sugar-free ice creams
As you can probably tell, my kids love ice cream and popsicles, but when you see how much sugar and other nasties go onto a regular ice block, you'll want to start making your own.
I have plenty of sugar-free ice cream recipes on the website, yogo berry sugar-free ice blocks, frozen berry popsicles (covered in chocolate), and sugar-free chocolate mixed berry popsicles (with hidden spinach).
And now, there's even a mocha popsicle, brandy popsicle and a vegan peanut butter ice cream.

I was wondering the same thing... Could all ingredients be thrown in at once. Looks like too much work to do the layers. Too hard for me to stand in one place.

Sure thing! I just love the layered look, and the kids find it yummy to eat through the flavours.
Sarah
Hi, what granulated sweetener did you use for the recipe? Thanks, Sarah
Libby www.ditchthecarbs.com
Great question! Here is my Ultimate Guide To Low-Carb Sweeteners. I discuss what I use and what I avoid.
Jade
I'm sorry, but can you please explain to me how these are sugar-free? Am I missing something? Was super excited when I saw the recipe on your blog but there's sugar in both the berry and the cheesecake! Scratching my head here...
Libby www.ditchthecarbs.com
Hi Jade, there is no added sugar. The sweeteners are all sugar free so the only sugar is a small amount from the berries, but there are no sugars used in the recipe itself.

I decided to make this with some fresh strawberries I picked this morning (love berry picking season!) but was feeling especially lazy tonight, so instead of making your beautiful layers I just chucked all the ingredients together in the food processor. HOLY YUM the strawberry cheesecake mousse that came out might be my new favourite dessert! Thanks for the lovely recipe!
Vince
I really love the way these ice blocks look visually. That has to be my favorite part and makes them so appealing to try.
