If you could only have two sweet treats a week, what would they be?

By sweet treat I mean - a piece of cake, a serving of pudding, a small chocolate bar, a couple of biscuits.

So ... strictly only two per week. What would you choose?

Eccles cake and black forest gateaux for me.

Sesame snaps

Lotus biscuits

But I’d happily bin those for crisps.

A snickers and a double decker.

I only have 2 a week. I tend to pick either a cake/cookie and a bar of chocolate.

Sweet treats not my weakness.

I will also trade for crisps, specifically Pipers Wild Thyme and Rosemary. With wine.

Chicchicchicchiclana · 14/08/2020 21:22

Waxon - I need you to be more specific!

It totally depends. Before my period I’d have a kilo bar of dairy milk x2. The rest of the time I’d have something like custard creams or chocolate gingers or Jaffa cakes x1 and a pudding on a Sunday which would change depending on the weather.

Chicchicchicchiclana · 14/08/2020 21:23

Ooo yes to Eccles cake.

Only 2 a week? That's harsh!

I would have to mix it up from week to week as there are so many sweet treats that I love! (I could quite happily live the rest of my days without crisps @PurpleDaisies)

Week 1 would possibly be a large slab of rocky road & a large portion of raspberry pavlova 😋

Lindt milk chocolate bar and a homemade brownie

MrsT1405 · 14/08/2020 21:24

Boost bars!

CatBatCat · 14/08/2020 21:25

Carrot cake with frosting and real hot chocolate with cream

WellThankyouAJPTaylor · 14/08/2020 21:25

I would have a gluten free chocolate swirl pastry from Morrisons (recent discovery) and some Tony's milk chocolate.

chickensoup23 · 14/08/2020 21:26

Kinder bueno and custard slices 😍

IAmTooBloodyHot · 14/08/2020 21:28

Ooh a big fat chocolate choux bun and a double decker.

(On a diet at the moment and reading these is killing me 🤤)

RingoFlamingo · 14/08/2020 21:31

Lotus Biscoff ice cream and a gooey chocolate chunk cookie, please :-)

Gingerkittykat · 14/08/2020 21:32

The day before my period I will have a tin of Carnation caramel and a spoon, please.

I will have apple or rhubarb crumble the rest of the time.

BullshitVivienne · 14/08/2020 21:33

Pick and mix and a fancy milkshake.

(I came here to see if anyone had said they couldn't possibly manage two sweet treats a week and opted for a mint leaf and an ice cube, but sadly not).

TakemedowntoPotatoCity · 14/08/2020 21:33

A white kinder Bueno and a crumble of some sort of maybe a cheescake
