Weight Watchers Strawberry Shortcake

While this dessert is a little high in calories (170), it's REALLY good. Especially if you leave the strawberries slightly frozen. It's got a little layer of yellow cake on the bottom, which held up really nicely after being microwaved to defrost. I definitely recommend these if you can spare a few calories.

Skinny Cow's Mint and Fudge Ice Cream Cone

I don't like mint ice cream, I'll say that right off the bat. But I made an exception for this yummy cone. The combination of mint and chocolate reminds me of an Andes after dinner mint. The cone and chocolate combination was crispy (no sogginess here!) and it tasted like real chocolate. The ice cream has a very light texture- almost like a heavy cool whip. It's 96% fat free, has 150 calories and 3g of fiber- not too bad for a dessert. It has the equivalent of 3 WW points.

I definitely recommend this- even if you don't typically like mint ice cream- if you like Andes, you'll probably like this.

Klondike Slim-a-Bear 100 Calorie Bars

The good- Good flavor (despite having chocolate "flavored" coating and vanilla "flavored" ice cream), I mean GOOD flavor. The "chocolate" coating has a great krispy texture to it, much like the regular Klondike bars.

The bad- it's pretty small, compared to a regular Klondike bar. It probably measures about 2.5-3" in diameter and about a 1/2" thick. Still, it does the job for those who can't afford the enormous amount of calories in a regular Klondike bar.
It's just enough to ward off a sweet tooth attack, particularly if you eat it a little slower and savor the taste.

Luigi's Sugar Free Italian Ice

While not calorie free, Luigi's Italian Ice is the perfect low-cal summer treat. You can only get a mixed box of Lemon and Cherry (though perhaps this is all that's available to me locally) but it doesn't matter. The lemon, because of the tartness, tastes nearly as good as a full out sugar ice, and I didn't miss the sugar in the Cherry flavored either (I had actually never tried the Cherry before, and was pleased to discover that I really liked it). These palette pleasing deserts come in at just 60 calories and are fat free.
