in Chit-Chat
So work Christmas lunch is coming up and we just received an email about our choice of sundae for dessert. I know what I probably SHOULD be having but probably won't go with the healthy choice. Which one would you go for? Definitely the hardest decision I will make all day :smile:

Rocky road sundae, with house made marshmallows, toffee peanuts, chocolate sauce and glace cherries

Champagne sorbet, strawberries, spun toffee

Chocolate ice cream, chocolate brownie, chocolate cup filled with fudge sauce

Vanilla and caramel fudge ice creams, peanut brittle, butterscotch sauce, banana

Low fat vanilla yoghurt sundae with fresh seasonal fruits

Vanilla and Jamaican coffee ice cream, coffee cream filled profiteroles

Berry Pavlova sundae: vanilla and strawberry ice cream, meringue, kiwi fruit and strawberries.

    Go for the Rocky Road--sounds interesting, like you wouldn't be able to get it everywhere

    the yogurt sounds like the smart choice, but I would probably go with the coffee flavored sundae. Yum!

    Either the yogurt or the champagne sorbet.

    I agree, Rocky Road all the way. You're so lucky, we don't get anything from work even though we work Christmas.

    If it's a splurge day def the Ricky road, if you are following diet, yogurt and fruit.

    Champagne sorbet with strawberries minus the spun toffee if possible is prolly not too bad a choice, besides the (I think) obvious choice of yogurt & fruit. The yogurt could actually be worse than some of the other choices depending on what they do to the fruit...

    I would starve myself all day and have CHOCOLATE!!!!!!!! Or walk to the party instead of driving to compensate for some of the extra calories :laugh:

    The Berry Pavlova sounds good to me... :) Just depends on what your sweet tooth is telling you. I say enjoy yourself for the day.

    Oh I'd go for Chocolate ice cream, chocolate brownie, chocolate cup filled with fudge sauce, and make up for it with a salad the next day

    I'm sorry. Screw the yoghurt! Go for the third choice, the "vanilla ice cream and caramel" and stuff. If you have to, go run to the top of a hill the next day.

    It's definitely going to be a splurge day because we're having tapas before this and there will no doubt be alcohol involved. I just can't seem to make up my mind. I think I've ruled out the chocolate, yoghurt and the coffee so that still leaves 4 choices - first world problems hey

    I think I will definitely have to exercise that morning to make things a little more managable

    Dang they sound amazing. Plain ice cream and strawberries is really satisfying until you compare it to the calorie laden ones. I'd go rocky road.

    Berry Pavlova Sundae. It's not what you "should" have and therefore a treat for you and still not bad as a choice.

    The Champagne sorbet, strawberries, spun toffee sounds wonderful without being real bad for you.

    Holy cow! No wonder you're having a hard time deciding!! They all sound amazing! I would go for any of these three:


    Rocky road sundae, with house made marshmallows, toffee peanuts, chocolate sauce and glace cherries

    Champagne sorbet, strawberries, spun toffee

    Vanilla and caramel fudge ice creams, peanut brittle, butterscotch sauce, banana

    P.S. Where do you work? I want to apply... :laugh:

    They all sound delicious! I'd go the vanilla and caramel fudge, but the chocolate is a close second.

    Rocky Road all the way!

    And do a whole bunch of exercise the DAY BEFORE so you know you've earned the treat and you can enjoy it guilt free.

    Are you trying to decide what will do the least damage? I expect the sorbet is your best bet, and will be delicious. And the pavlova might not be too bad, fat free except for the ice cream (although a total sugar bomb).

    Enjoy, whatever you choose.
