This may sound funny, but whenever I am craving cake, toasts like this one help me satiate them quickly, and it’s often more delicious than many plain-tasting store-bought desserts. Wholegrain bread, delicious fruits, nut butter, nuts and seeds, and a little bit of dark chocolate. I am not saying that I don’t eat unhealthier sweets as well, but I try to find a balance.
Things that can contribute to having sugar cravings include stress, hormonal imbalance, poor diet or bad gut health, lack of energy, mineral deficiency, dehydration, and many other factors. To beat the problem, you need to find out the reason for your cravings. Some general tips include sleeping enough, planning your meals, eating enough protein and healthy fat, and keeping your stress in check. Also, avoid temptation or opt for healthier sources of sugar like fruits.
What’s your favourite way to satiate your cravings for sweets?

Bananas and peanut butter on wheat bread is very tasty and healthy for sugar cravings
I agree with you. I love everything with bananas.
My favorite way is to open the fridge and scavenge whatever I can find. Right now, it is all chocs ?. When I am trying to slow down, I go for coffee.
But coffee goes great with a sweet treat, doesn’t it? 😀
Of coooooourse! That is my favorite combo. But if I want to limit my sugar consumption, coffee will do.
don’t like anything sweeter than fruit. and sweet is my least favorite fruit
Awwww. You do not know what you are missing Mr. A ?
Shh, don’t open his eyes! More sweets for us this way!
Good for you! If I don’t have something sweet, it’s like I haven’t eaten.
I am quite popular with the ladies when I give my sweets away
I am popular with guys when I accept their sweets. Then I become fat and less popular.
ellie always knows how to crack me up. the pixie knows how to wind me up…
Lol! Naughty one. Let us be nice to Mr. A. Let him complain (between you and me, that means, let him complain as I will just annoy him more ???)
Well, Mr. A, if anyone gifted you with chocs and desserts this holiday, just fedex it to Ellie and I and we will be happy to save you from trouble of eating anything sweet ???
it would never make it to the post office. girls ambush me long before…
You mean to say, girls will ambush the sweets you carry Mr. A. And then they will take away the sweets leaving you behind without the sweets ???
yes, they ambush me and take my sweets. nobody needs me…
Ellie cracks you up and the pixie winds you up? I take that as a lovely compliment, Mr. A. Pixies aren’t comedians. What are we for except to do mischief to unsuspecting humans ???
That’s okay, you always crack me up, and I know how to make desserts. We don’t need him. ?
We need you for your art and wisdom, just not for desserts. 😉
are you trying to butter me up for something?
I wouldn’t succeed. Your intelligence is comparable only to your amazing talent!
everyone has blindspots. learn to exploit them
I love desserts. Many times I have a craving for sweet. I usually quench that craving with fruits or nuts.
It’s great that fruits and nuts work for you too!
Many times I have a craving for sweet, my dear friend …. I prefer chocolate cake … I choose nothing healthier … coma lingers sweet I don’t mean healthy eating … I always have something sweet at home but no other but milk chocolate
Chocolate cake is delicious indeed!
Anything chocolatey is great for me, dear friend
I always eat biscuits or cake or something like that when I drink tea. The food containing on the plate is delicious. Great picture
Thank you so much, it was delicious indeed!
sometimes desserts that are better for me are also tasty. Sometimes they are not. It really depends on the cook!!!!
On the ingredients too. Sometimes, when they become too healthy is at the expense of the taste, haha.
I have tried many of your shares over the years and taste has never been the problem 🙂
I am very happy to hear that!
the problem has always been stopping at one piece
I love all kind of dessert
Me too, but I prefer them to be a little bit healthier.
Hmm I opt for healthier options, so eat dark chocolate and fruits.
I switched to dark chocolate too a few years ago. I don’t like the taste of sugary chocolate anymore.
I crave for chocolates and our fridge always has them.
I love chocolate too, it’s the best treat.
I used to have cravings, not so much any more. But I still enjoy the unhealthy desserts from time to time.
Yes, as long as it’s in moderation, a dessert is a wonderful treat.
You know Ellie, I never really craved too many sweets. I think it was all that candy that I ate as a child my body just had enough. I don’t use sugar in anything, not even iced tea. What I do enjoy now and then is a croissant with jam or pancakes with some jam.
Croissant and pancakes with jam sound really good.
