i know a lot of people enjoys a piece of desert after meals and i am one of them.
i enjoy a scoop of ice cream, a chocolate or a piece of fruit after meal it is like my sealer haha. i think i got that from my mom coz she always makes sure when i was growing up that we have something to eat after meal, she likes bananas or whatever fruit we have available then.
she said it is healthy and i think it is true, beside i love fruits and some other kind of deserts LOL
i know some people who hates deserts and fruits of any kind, i wonder why.

There is a little shop that makes a very good blacforest cake, but I try really hard to steer clear of it as often as I can, LOL! As for the sticky date pudding, if I didn't know that was it's name, I wouldn't even know there were dates in it. I can't taste them, and the hot syrup is delicious.

hello muscare,
if you will ask me what is my favorite cake then i will have to say "black forest" it is just so yummy and hmmmmmmm
unfortunately i havent found a restaurant who serves it here and my baking skill seems to be as rustic as a pure rust itself so i am missing that one.
my husband always looks for that whenever we go out but we havent found it yet so hopefully one of these days i can have some of it coz i miss it so much. bad man! LOL
hmmm sticky date pudding ei?
i am not a fan of pudding nor dates though i can eat a few dates but 4 is too much, makes me wonder what it taste like - i mean the pudding LOL.
anyway, nice to hear from you again.
good night!

I like ice cream, pie, cake, sherbet, cookies, fruit, fortune cookies, candy dried fruit, and almost anything sweet for dessert. I wish I did not like it so much but dessert is a hard habit to break.

hello!
do you eat heavy meals? or you do get full easy? sorry to ask just wonder coz you mention you're already full after meals.
i enjoy fruit sometimes over the sweet ones just depends on my mood or what i am craving for in that specific time.
right now i wish i am having some M&M blizzards though, hmmmm.
anyway, sorry to hear about your tooth i dont know why you said it is not good but i wish it gets better somehow specially if it's bothering you.
takecare and thanks for being here!

I am also the type of person who likes to take dessert after having meals. When come to dessert I am not picky and I enjoy whatever dessert served. There are tons of delicious desserts of various varieties and I love them all. A scoop of ice cream, an egg tart, yogurt of any fruit flavor, chocolate with nuts, cheese cake,...... I love them all. There are so... yummy

yeah my husband always asked me to eat bananas coz it is very healthy potassium and zinc - we all need that specially if you dont like taking multi vitamins like me LOL.
oh i love all those fruits that you mentioned specially the pears.
i enjoy watermelon during summer coz it helps me to cool down so far i enjoy most kind of fruits except a whole piece of papaya or avocado i can only have a slice of it and not eat the whole thing.
thanks for asking and for your respond as well.

I love cheesecake so much. It has to be my favourite dessert. Especially fruit cheesecake, where is has raspberry or strawberry drizzled on it. A month or so ago, I had a nice desert of treacle tart with ice cream on top. It is also fun sharing a bowl of ice cream with my boyfriend, it feels all couple like and nice.

hello elixiress,
how sweet it is to share a sweet food to your sweetheart, i love to do the same and i feel good whenever my husband and i shared a small size of M&M blizzards haha!
i have never heard of treacle tart, what is that?
thanks for sharing a new information to me i am hearing a lot of good stuff to this discussion which is really great.
thanks again.

hehe, i have never heard the term "treacle" so i consult my dictionary and found out this "British term for molasses"
NOW i understand haha!
oh strawberry filled tart (i have not taste that one yet too) i just ate fresh strawberry as my dessert tonight) and more so to have treacle as its filling, sounds pretty tasty i wonder if that is available in my area.
i might asked my sister if her husband knows it or her chef (she is taking culinary arts course in finland) so she might know that and i can asked for a recipe.
thanks a lot for responding again, appreciate it a lot.
good night!

It is basically a tart with treacle in it as the name says. Most people have just heard of strawberry tarts, similar flans filled with a strawberry mixture, but this one had treacle rather than strawberry.

I love cheesecake and my favorite being strawberry. I even like the strawberry cheesecake icecream they sell at Baskin Robbins :)

seems like the second favorite dessert here is cheesecake. i only ate strawberry flavor once and it is really tasty i enjoy strawberry to most food with it.
i havent tried ice cream flavor like that though my husband loves haagendaz so i only buy strawberry flavor or dulce de leche while he is having his vanilla flavor or chocolate chip.
but next time i will look for Baskin Robins and see if they have strawberry cheesecake flavor.
thanks for the idea.
takecare and good night!

Oh dear, more food questions, lol. I love cheesecake, plain or with fruit topping. I bet it would be lovely with strawberries, bananas, and drizzled with chocolate. Sounds like a trip to the store for me, lol.
Then again, something as simple as some fruit or sherbert is just fine too. Just don't expect me to share the chocolate truffles, lol.

i don't like fruit but i ate them anyways cause it's healthy and i'm also trying to lose weight so i think it's best for me if i start eating them. My favorite dessert is cookies or chocolate cake, i know it's bad for someone who's trying to lose weight but i can't help it
@jairgirl (2877)

hello,
i think a few bite is good as long as it is not MUCH or more than just a slice and of course if you are working hard or exercising so it wont matter anyway if you would like to have a sweet one.
fruits is really great for you but my husband told me before (hope my memories serves me right!) that there are some kind of vegetables and fruits than can add to the calories intake.
anyway, i wish you all the best here in mylot and the weight watching as well i am doing the best so good luck to us!
takecare!
