    Depending on my mood, I give myself some options.( I am on 1300 cal. a day. So I understand where you are coming from )I have Torrie and Howard organic hard candies for 12 calories, Mini or fun size snickers or paydays for 45 and 90 :O calories, Blue bell sugar free pops for 15 calories a pop, large marshmallow for 25 cal., small apple for 45 cal. organic ginger snap for 30 cal., gobbstopper/ sweetart for about 15cal. I also do tea with a whopping 60 cal. worth of sugar. But that's only if I can calorically afford it... There are lots of options if you can have some restraint/moderation. I am working on this, but I can tell you, seeing the scale drop daily puts things in such a light that it really helps with my self control! You can do it! Good luck!

    My favorite thing to eat is Weight Watchers Giant Fudge Bars. They're only 100 calories and they have 5 grams of fiber. The snack size is only 60 calories.

    I use to go for low fat, sugar free things, but they always replace natural ingredients for sweeteners that just trick your body into wanting more. If you choose small amounts of things that aren't fake, you will actually eat less of it and be satisfied. For sweets, I usually eat anything i want, just in small amounts. I suggest small amounts of dark chocolate, a cup of hot chocolate, fruit, greek yogurt, frozen yogurt, or save up some of you calories from the day and use it splurge once in awhile after dinner. It's a lifestyle change, not a diet , just remember that.

    Yasso Frozen Greek Yogurt Bars. That's my go-to. I get that sweet craving about an hour after dinner and it sucks because my calories have already been used by dinner and sometimes (more often than I care to admit) wine. But! I save at least 100 just to have one of these. They run between 80-110 calories a bar and are delicious!

    Raise your calories! Eat more protein and fat! Fruits are great too for that sweet craving

    Trader Joe's has a "sipping chocolate" mix that's basically cocoa powder + sugar. A tablespoon is 30 cal. I have a tablespoon or two at a time for a small treat. Looking at your entries I'm guessing you're not in America, but you might be able to find something similar where you are.

    Weight Watchers dark chocolate raspberry ice cream bar. It's 90 calories of awesomeness.

    Man, I actually threw out the box. Wasn't worth the calories to me.

    I love the Healthy Choice frozen Greek yogurt cups at 100 calories. Very satisfying. Also Trader Joe's 100 calorie chocolate bars (or you can buy chocolate bars and just eat a couple squares).

    Otherwise, pretty much any cookie you like, just have to be able to stop at one. Same with ice cream... Edy's slow churned is usually good and 130 calories or less a serving, as long as you can stop at one serving.

    Skinny Cow Ice Pops (Chocolate Truffle, Salted Caramel, etc.) Yoplait Frozen Greek yogurt with granola fruit pops, etc. I also loved the WW Dark Chocolate Raspberry pops. These were probably already mentioned but I didn't read all the replies and they're my favorite. I also have a sweet tooth and an apple won't satisfy it unless it's with PB.

    Jelly (or jello) is super tasty, I enjoy popcorn too.

    You could probably make little muffins with a controlled amount of sugar and work out the calories and be able to have a small one after tea. Also small chocolate bars, I'm from England and here we have a bar called freddo! Its about as long as my index finger and is just enough chocolate to be tasty and not too much to ruin a diet!
