How to consume Chocolate cake without glucose spikes
Portion Control
Enjoy smaller portions of chocolate cake to reduce the overall impact on your blood sugar levels.
Pair with Fiber-Rich Foods
Consume the cake with fiber-rich foods such as a salad with leafy greens, or vegetables like broccoli and carrots, which can help slow down digestion and absorption of sugars.
Include Protein
Add a source of protein like a handful of nuts or seeds, a boiled egg, or some Greek yogurt. Protein can help stabilize your blood sugar levels.
Add Healthy Fats
Incorporate healthy fats into your meal, such as avocado slices, a small serving of nuts, or a drizzle of olive oil, to help moderate blood sugar spikes.
Stay Hydrated
Drink water before and after consuming the cake to help your body manage glucose levels more effectively.
Exercise Regularly
Engage in light physical activity, such as a brisk walk, after eating to help your muscles use up some of the glucose from the cake.
Opt for Dark Chocolate
If you can choose, opt for a cake made with dark chocolate, which generally has less sugar and more beneficial compounds than milk chocolate.
Mindful Eating
Eat slowly and mindfully to give your body time to process the sugar more efficiently, reducing the chance of a spike.
Prioritize Whole Grains
If making your own cake, consider using whole grain flour, which may help reduce the blood sugar impact compared to refined flour.
Monitor Blood Sugar Levels
Keep track of your blood sugar levels before and after eating the cake to understand how different strategies impact your body and adjust accordingly.

The concept of using CGM to guide your training and food plan is brilliant. The app is also very well laid out.
