Did you ever check how many calories are in these fufu coffee drinks at the popular coffee houses. I'm not talk just a cup of coffee but the mocha and lattee and stuff. My favaorite has 640 calories!!! WOW. Time to rethink the fufu coffee.

I know it's ridiculous! When I want coffee now I usually get a skinny vanilla latte or my new favorite is the skinny cinnamon dolce latte (each has 90 calories for a tall, just the calories in the milk. It's not super sweet but its warm and gets the job done.0

Those are my 2 favorites also. I don't have them often but when I'm wanting one, those are the ones I go for.0 -
I thought I was the only one that called it FUFU! LOL If you get them at Starbuck or the like; the whipped cream is the biggest culprit. It is full fat and loaded with fat/calories. That's why I just do flavored brewed coffee with hal and half. Lower fat, lower calories and tasty.0

I completely understand I am a BIG fan of Mocha Frappuccino and Green Tea Lattes wow how i miss them sooo LoL
but to curb the craving If I can wait till you get home i make this treat for myself or aometimes pack it in a "to go" cup
12oz Folgers coffee (0 calories)
3 TBSP Hershey Syrup Sugar Free (15 calories per 2 tbsp)
3oz 2% Milk (46 calories)
1 Packet of Sun Crystals (5 calorie all natural sweetener per packet)
Shake in shaker with ice, serve and enjoy!0 -
my newest favorite is a nonfat caffe misto - half coffee, half nonfat steamed milk. gives it that latte feel without breaking the wallet or your gut! and sometimes you can even get them to add a shot of the sugar free flavoring for free (or 40 cents, but still cheaper than a latte!) as long as you don't miss the espresso - it's just about the same thing! A grande has 70 calories0

Starbucks and many other coffee houses do have the calorie content for their drinks available. And yes, some of the best FUFU drinks are calorie bombs. If you have to get a mocha, though, I suggest getting the mocha frappucino light at Starbucks - you'll save 120 calories. Personally, I switched to Americano's, only 10 calories total.

I didn't read the title as Fufu, I read it as F-u F-u coffee. I thought "Wow, someone is really pissed at their coffee." After reading the posts I think both titles work0

I really can't comprehend fouling a good cup of coffee with artificial flavors, hydrogenated fats, and corn syrups. It's like stirring a dollop of peanut butter into a glass of wine or salting your beer.
Now, maybe, -maybe-, I could see a shot of espresso with a whole bunch of cane sugar dissolved in it, as a dessert. Maybe. But to fool yourself by calling those things 'coffee' is ridiculous. Calling it 'Ice Cream Sundae' would be more honest. If you feel good about having an 'Ice Cream Sundae' in the cupholder on your way to work, then great. I have 'Coffee'.
P.S. Having it made with simulated fat and synthetic sweeteners doesn't make it coffee, it makes it 'Fake Ice Cream Sundae'. That's even nastier, IMO.0 -
My non-fat latte is about 210! I'm going to have to go back to drip brew. Even if I add the full fat flavored creamer, it's still WAY less than the latte. Oh well. It's a great way to save about 100 cals!0

I was just thinking how I could manage to fit in my favorite fufu coffee drink and still lose wieght...So far, no luck!! I have the sugar free creamers at home but still not the same! So frusterating!0

I cannot live without my fufu coffees. But I get a latte (16oz) with skim milk and either 1 pack of Splenda, two pumps of SF Cinnamon Dolce (Starbucks) - 130 Calories; or SF Almond Rocha. Normally they give you 4 pumps of the syrup. So if you can cut that down a little, that helps. And NO whipped cream!0

In the summer I brew a little extra coffee in the morning and put it in the fridge. Then once it's cooled, I pour it into my magic bullet, with a little sugar free syrup, and a little skim milk, and a buttload of ice cubes. (Buttload - I believe is a correct term in measuring things) . Then I blend it up, and pour it into my starbucks to go cup and call it good! :drinker:0

This is how I make my coffee too and drink it. Plain black. No calories, no carbs to worry about. I do sometimes add saturated fat to my coffee in the form of coconut oil as it helps to curb my appetite.0 -
