I have seen lots of great 100cal/150cal treats and snacks on the forum but most of them seem to be American foods? Anyone got any sweet treats that are MFP friendly that are available in the UK? Thanks!

    Marks and Spencers do these gorgeous little bags of fruit strips for around 110 calories.

    Thats great! I cant deny my sweet tooth-not fussy on crisps though which is a good thing I guess:)

    Jelly! Whenever I'm craving something sweet and sugary, I get some jelly. Hartley's do little sachets of it and they're only something like 10 cal per sachet. Brilliant. Currently on offer at ASDA too, 4 for £1 if I remember correctly :)

    Lots of your 'funsize' stuff is OK - Malteasers, Magic stars and milky ways. And its proper chocolate too :smile:
    And if you do fancy a nibble on a packet of crisps - stock up on Walkers Baked (which I would be lost without!)

    It definitely is a bargain. I find myself making bowls of it each night. They do the pre-made pots too, which are also on offer at ASDA. You may be able to tell where I shop, haha.

    Thanks Scoochie. I have only started the diet and have been quite good so far but get awful sugar cravings which always lead me on the road to being greedy! I think the key is to keep treats as "treats" :)

    Ok, this might not be low cal. But, mom was from England and her family would send us
    1) UK chocolate....amazingly better than ours in the US
    2) Jelly babies....OMG love them so much, yum yum yum...
