Why we’re talking about this crust
If we’re honest, pizza is one of those foods that many of us don’t want to give up — even when we’re trying to eat low-carb, keto, or just cleaner. The idea of trading the traditional dough for something lighter — but still satisfying — is pretty appealing.
That’s where Kbosh’s Keto Cauliflower Pizza Crust comes in: it promises a “pizza experience” without the usual high carbs. So we thought: let’s take a closer look at it together — ingredients, nutrition, taste, how well it works, and whether it’s worth including in our low-carb or keto meals.
What exactly is it?
In short: the Kbosh Keto Cauliflower Pizza Crust is a ready-made crust (frozen or chilled depending on where you buy it) that swaps out much of the flour or grain base found in standard pizza crusts, and instead uses cauliflower (and often cheese, egg, nut flours) as the main structure. That allows for fewer carbs.
According to one source: the whole crust weighs in at just 3 g total carbs and ~120 calories in some size. ketorecipecollection.com+3FoodSocial+3Amazon US+3 One nutrition breakdown shows a serving (1/3 crust) has 40 calories, 1 g carbs, 3 g fat, 3 g protein. Instacart+2ketorecipecollection.com+2
The brand emphasizes: “simple, clean ingredients, zero preservatives, no added sugar.” GoSupps+2ketorecipecollection.com+2
So it aims to let us still enjoy pizza-style meals while staying aligned with lower-carb goals.
The nutrition & ingredient snapshot
Let’s dig into the numbers, and then talk what they mean in everyday terms.
What the label says
- One breakdown: 1/3 crust (~24 g) → calories ~ 40, carbs ~ 1 g, fat ~ 3 g, protein ~ 3 g. FoodSocial+1
- Whole crust may be about 120 calories and ~3 g total carbs for certain size/serving. FoodSocial+1
- Ingredients listed in one database: Cauliflower, mozzarella cheese (pasteurized milk, cheese culture, salt, enzymes), egg, almond flour, coconut flour, golden flaxseed meal, cream of tartar, baking soda, monk fruit (sweetener). EWG+1
What this tells us
- Low carbohydrate: Compared to a traditional flour crust, which can easily have 20+ g carbs per slice, this is very low-carb. That’s a big plus if we’re on keto or watching net carbs.
- Protein & fat included: Because of cheese, egg, almond/coconut flours, this crust brings some protein and fat, which helps in satiety (feeling full) and aligns nicely with a higher-fat, lower-carb diet.
- Vegetable boost: Cauliflower is the base, which is good — it brings nutrients and fiber, though in a processed crust we can’t assume it’s “as good as eating straight cauliflower”.
- Ingredient simplicity: The list is relatively straightforward — no highly processed flours, fewer additives claimed. That helps for us when choosing more “whole-food” style convenience options.
- Caveats: Because of the cheese and egg, it may not be vegan. Also, while carbs are low, fat may be higher than a plain flour crust, and sodium content could be something to watch depending on toppings/sauce. And as one nutrition-analysis article pointed out: cauliflower crusts aren’t automatically “healthier” than traditional crusts just because cauliflower is in there — the other ingredients and toppings matter a lot.

Taste, texture & how it works in practice
We tried considering how this crust performs in a real-life pizza scenario, because the numbers are great — but what about eating experience?
What people say
- One review of the brand said: “We’ve used every crust imaginable for pizza and love them … the crusts are made from healthy, natural ingredients like cauliflower, zucchini, and spinach.” (Talking about the brand’s broader line) ketorecipecollection.com
- A user comment: > “We used the cauliflower one and it was 7 net carbs total for the whole pizza. It was so good I didn’t even miss …” Facebook
- The brand claims: “Use your Keto Crusts directly from the freezer! Simply brown them on each side, add your toppings, then bake to your liking! … Versatile for pizza, chips, wraps, lasagna, quiche, pies and more.” GoSupps
Our thoughts
- Texture: Because it’s cauliflower/cheese/egg based, the bite tends to be firmer than a soft dough crust. That may appeal if you like a crisp base, but if you prefer the chew of traditional pizza dough you might notice the difference.
- Flavor: It has the mild cauliflower-cheese flavor base. That means it can adapt well to many toppings and sauces without being overwhelming. On the flip side, some may say it lacks the “yeasty dough” flavor of traditional crust.
- Versatility: We like the fact that it can be used not only for pizza but other dishes (wraps, quiches etc). That adds value.
- Ease: Being ready made, you save the time of making your own cauliflower crust from scratch (which often involves ricing cauliflower, draining water, binding with egg/cheese, etc). For busy weeknights, that convenience is a win.
- Topping/method matters: Since the crust is “lighter” in carbs, what you build on top counts even more: lots of cheese, high-fat meats, heavy sauces can quickly raise calories/fat. Also, if you overload it, you might lose some of the crispness or it might get soggy.
When / why we might choose this crust
Let’s think about scenarios where this product makes sense — and also when we might opt for something else.
Good scenarios
- If we’re on a keto diet or low-carb eating plan, and want pizza without the carb hit.
- If we simply want to reduce grain or flour intake, maybe eat more veggies, and still enjoy pizza nights.
- If we’re short on time and don’t want to craft crust from scratch.
- If we’re cooking for someone who needs gluten-free (though note: we should check the packaging for gluten status) or lower-net-carb options.
- If we like to experiment: using the crust for non-pizza dishes (wraps, paninis, mini quiche) could be fun.
Situations where we might think twice
- If we really prefer the taste/texture of traditional crust — sometimes the trade-off means accepting a different mouth-feel.
- If cost is a major factor: convenience crusts like this may cost more per pizza than making your own dough or buying basic crusts.
- If toppings are heavy: the benefit of low-carb crust is lessened if you load it with high-calorie, high-fat toppings.
- If we’re vegan: since this crust has cheese/egg (in certain versions) it may not fit.
- If we’re tracking salt or fat closely: cauliflower + cheese + almond/coconut flours may mean different nutritional profile than plain crust.
How to get the best out of it (our tips)
Since we’ll be using this crust, let’s make sure we’re doing it right so we maximize taste and nutrition.
- Pre-bake or prebrown lightly: The brand suggests browning each side before toppings to get a firmer base. Helps avoid sogginess. GoSupps
- Use a moderate sauce: Go for a simple tomato sauce (no added sugar) or perhaps a pesto for variation. Heavy cream sauces risk adding lots of fat and calories.
- Pick leaner toppings + veggies: For example grilled chicken, mushrooms, bell peppers, spinach. These boost volume and nutrients without blowing your macros.
- Cheese moderation: Even though it’s tasty, too much cheese may spike fat/calorie count. Using a moderate amount or mixing in lower-fat cheeses can help.
- Watch portion size: Even though the crust is low in carbs, eating a large pizza or very heavy toppings can still exceed what we intend in terms of calories.
- Enjoy the “treat” mindset: Treat it as a satisfying version of pizza, instead of expecting it to taste exactly like the traditional high-carb version. That mindset helps avoid disappointment.
- Use for creative dishes: Don’t limit to pizza! Try making a “cauliflower crust calzone”, or a “mini tortilla” for wraps using this crust. Makes it more versatile and fun.
The bottom line: is it worth it?
In our assessment: yes — the Kbosh Keto Cauliflower Pizza Crust is a very good option if you’re trying to reduce carbs and still want to enjoy pizza-style meals. Its strengths are clear: low carbs, decent ingredients, convenience, and versatility.
However, it’s not a magic bullet. We should remain realistic: the texture/taste will differ somewhat from a classic dough crust; toppings matter a lot; cost and availability may vary; and we still need to watch the overall meal (sauce, sides, drinks, etc). As one nutrition article put it: cauliflower crusts can be healthier, but they depend heavily on how you finish them. Healthline
If we integrate it into our weekly meal rotation with the right toppings and mindful portions, it can help us stay aligned with low-carb goals without feeling deprived.
So if we were to give it a “pro” and “con” summary:
Pros:
- Low carb, keto-friendly
- Uses vegetable base (cauliflower) + simpler ingredient list
- Ready-made convenience
- Versatile for pizzas, wraps, etc
Cons:
- Texture/flavor differs from classic crust — may not fully replace the “real thing” for everyone
- Potentially higher cost per pizza than standard crusts
- Nutritional benefit depends heavily on toppings and meal context
- Not necessarily vegan (in this version)
Final Thought
In our kitchen, we’d pick this crust when we want a better-for-us pizza night with minimal fuss. We’d buy maybe two or three, keep them in the freezer, and on a busy evening we’d pull one out, prep toppings while it browns, then bake and enjoy. We’d pair it with a crisp side salad (greens, some vinaigrette) to round out the meal.
And we’d also remind ourselves: even when we are doing “healthier” choices, enjoyment matters. If we hate the crust because we feel it’s “just not like pizza”, then it loses value. So we’d approach it with curiosity and openness.
Enjoy your meal! 🍕
