    Caramac - 178

    Yazoo chocolate milkshake can be bought in 200ml portions and is 140 cal for that

    or Alpro Soya Chocolate drink at 250ml / 158 cal for a non-dairy alternative

    Cadbury Animal bar (is just dairy milk really!) is 110 cal


    Have a look at the kiddy section of the sweets - you'll find smaller portions like the mini packs of buttons and smaller bars of choc that might be more suitable.

    Also have a look at the sweet aisle in any large supermarket and you'll see a 40p per pack or 3 for £1 section. A section of these will be aimed at younger children and will have smaller portion sizes accordingly. Of course some will also be higher so you will need to check the packet for the ones you like.

    EG just had a quick look at Asda on mysupermarket - Flying saucers - 17g pack = 62cal

    Mikado chocolate-covered sticks! 11 calories per stick! Okay, it isn't pure chocolate, but I can eat a whole pack if I'm naughty and it only comes out at about 300 or so calories.

    What I'd like is a UK shop that sells individual 15g Nutella portions… asking too much? Maybe :P

    I dont think it is too much to ask!! They have started doing Philidelphia in the indivudual portions!!

    Yeah quest are multipack unfortunately. The fibre content however should be enough to prevent a splurge,lol. 17g per bar!

    Haha if feeling full stopped my binges I wouldn't need to be here! :ohwell:

    Haha oh I didnt mean satiety lol. I meant the slightly grosser (bowel related) side effect of excess fiber :laugh:

    I'm a big fan of Mrs Crimbles coconut macaroons. You can buy packs that are just a single one and they're a really nice sweet treat with an afternoon tea/coffee :)

    Naked bars

    +1 these are amazing I love all the varieties they do. They are relatively expensive though if you buy them as single bars!!! buying the multi box packs when they are on offer is much cheaper :)

    Just a thought, where do you keep your chocolate and how do you store it? I've got a pack of mint Clubs (8), a pack of orange Clubs (8) and a pack of Tunnocks caramel wafers (6, I think) but to prevent me (or the kids) eating them all in one go I keep them at work in the fridge. One every so often at lunch or break time is OK, I get the chocolate (or sugar) fix and coz I'm at work I'm not in the situation where I will sit and gorge myself so it's fairly safe to buy the multipacks.
    I wish being at work would stop the binge for me... I can happy eat a whole bag of milky top freddos at my desk.

    Not quite the same but the chocolate Philly is available in individual portions (you get 4 in a pack though)

    Not chocolate, but I treated myself today to a Solero Mojito flavour (with rum, apparently, the assistant had to check I was over 18!)

    Really tasty and refreshing, 55 calories.

    Wow, I'll be looking out for that one!!!

    Oh I see!! Mm, I'm not sure the side effects take hold fast enough ... And awareness of consequences to come is no obstacle to bingeing either for me :embarassed:

    You sound like the evil voice inside my head :devil:
    I can't do the saving-money thing on treats - I just eat what's there. That's why I've ended up on MFP! :wink:
    Please please this is a multipack-free zone, guys!!!

    Good point and I don't find it as addictive as Nutella, thanks

    I swear by the M&S Guilt Free snacking range, they have some amazing yummy treats. Favourites are the Extremely Chocolatey Millionaire Crispie (120 cals each), and the crispy fudge bar (135 cals each) - even hubby likes them instead of his usual bar of dairy milk, which is saying something!

    Cadburys brunch bars. Between 120 and 140 a bar. Comes in Choc Chip, Peanut and Raisin.

    Square bars are around 130-150. Also I am sure lidl sell individual, slightly smaller than average bars of chocolate. Like slightly smaller mars bar equivalents but you would have to check the values.
    Yoghurt are also around that too, even the chocolatey ones too and there is always crisps, rice cakes, and cereal bars which are normally around 100-150 cals.
