Try Korean/Asian markets. I worked with a few Koreans and they thought treats sold in the USA were way too sweet. They had sweet bean curd things that tasted great when I was doing Keto and while it wouldn’t be good to eat every day they were a nice snack sometimes.

It's surprising to look at the nutrition labels for anko/sweet red bean paste. It seems like it'd be a healthy alternative, but it's basically concentrated sugar cake.

I live in Japan. I've eaten plenty of it. It's the health equivalent of cake frosting in Asia.
