    You'd be better off if they were calorie free. Carbs don't have an impact on weight, calories do.

    If you find you can't control yourself around them you might have to cut them out for a bit. They're not inherently bad as long as they don't cause you to binge or go over your calories. Maybe you can save calories over the week and have them as a treat.

    If you just HAVE to have something sweet, it's a good habit to have to bake it yourself. When it's more work, it's definitely less fun to eat than just buying it. Plus, by home-making it, you can control what's in it - try making fruit-filled cupcakes or a frosting made with less sugar/fat. I LOVE to bake and have started incorporating healthier ingredients in my creations. I always make whipped cream frostings so they are lighter and with less sugars.
