In the world of keto-friendly eaters who are able to scan every label for hidden sugars, Fitbakes has engineered a innovation that is rewriting the rules of bread alternatives. Their Wholegrain Wraps contain just 3g of carbohydrates per serving they are the undisputed champions of the most low-carb wraps. The way to achieve this isn’t through artificial fillers, but rather a masterful blend of ancient fermentation techniques and modern nutritional science that preserves the soul of sourdough while reducing digestible carbohydrates.

The decoding of the Net Carb Mystery in Low Carb Breads
The magic begins with understanding carbs in low carb bread. Fitbakes exposes this trap. Each 40g wrap contains 18g of total carbohydrates. However, 15g derive from resistant wheat starch and oat fiber compounds the human gut cannot digest. A study conducted by a lab confirms that these fibers pass through the body inert and leave only 3g to impact blood glucose.
This resistant starch also functions as a prebiotic, providing beneficial gut bacteria and creating short-chain fatty acids which help to reduce inflammation. Research published in the Journal of Nutrition shows diets high in these fibers reduce HbA1c levels by an average of 0.4 percent for type-2 diabetics over 12 weeks. Similar to the effect of some prescription medications that are administered using a thin, simple tortilla.
Fermentation Alchemy – Sourdough is a perfect match for Carb Friendly Wraps
Fitbakes’ wild fermentation process is a long 18-hour period that utilizes a specific Lactobacillus Culture. The extended time of fermentation degrades phytic acids by 60%, which allows the release of minerals like magnesium and zinc that traditional bread stifles away. The lactic acids that result from this process create the tangy flavor traditionally associated with San Francisco Sourdough. Acetic acid keeps the wrap in a natural way without any chemical additives.
The dough matrix contains golden flaxseeds, which are milled in-house. They are rich in omega-3 ALA and the lignans that help to stabilize blood sugar. The psyllium gel develops when warm water causes the husk. It resembles the elasticity of gluten. The exterior of the flatbread develops tiny blisters when baked at 375 degrees exactly for 11 minutes. The crispness is achieved when cooked in a hot pan, and give it the authentic tear. These wraps that are low in carbs stay soft even after being refrigerated and unlike almond flour ones that are brittle when they are at room temperature.
Fitbakes wraps are versatile enough to be used for more than lunch. One wrap can be transformed into a 10-inch keto pizza base. Place the wrap on a baking sheet with a knife and bake for about 8 minutes, finish with full-fat cheese or marinara with 2g of carbs, or both. Its high-protein content of 11g per wrap of vital wheat gluten and pea isolat prevents dryness when toppings are wet. Home cooks have reported crisp edges and a chewy centre that is indistinguishable from traditional dough and all for just 6g net carbs for the entire pie.
Wrap the bacon, eggs and avocado inside the wrap, and then heat it up on a pan that is dry. It is then wrapped tightly. The fiber network absorbs water without disintegrating, creating an easy-to-pack lunch that stays in good shape on long commutes. School lunches are a favorite of parents who appreciate the shelf life of 14 months and the fact that a wrap is more filling than two slices of cloud bread.
Storage Science and Long-Term Freshness
Fitbakes packages every batch in sleeves that have been nitrogen flushed to prevent the oxidation flax oils. The wraps contain 38% of the bound moisture in the psyllium fiber lattice resisting the process of retrogradation of starch which can cause the bread to harden within hours. You can freeze an opened bag between parchment sheets, and then re-heat in an oven that is 300 degrees F for 3 minutes with zero texture loss. This stability eliminates the lengthy baking sessions on weekends that are typical of keto bread recipes made from scratch.
Fitbakes Wholegrain Wraps are the perfect bread for anyone who is trying to manage PCOS or is competing in bodybuilding. Low carb wraps don’t represent any compromise, they’re the latest standard.
