Hi there I know costa is probably going to be all extremely high syns but I'm going for a coffee date this afternoon with a friend, I'll have an Americano but I'm struggling on what to eat obvs I want cake but want to be good! I was thinking of a toasted tea cake but there high! I haven't had breakfast yet so depending on what bread they use (does anyone know) I could manybe have toast and use it as a healthy extra any tips please will be greatly appreciated happy Saturday everyone! Wink

Had a quick scroll through the app and they have a lot of the food options on there, and yes as expected, they're all quite high!
The lowest I can see are the Stem Ginger biscuits (8 syns each) and the Fruit & Oat biscuits (7 each). Breakfast Bloomer is 24.5 for the pack.

If you have the app I'd suggest having a trawl through, just put Costa in the search (or use the desktop site, ofc)

Yes I did look through the app all very high! I think toast gonna be the best option I'll have to ask what the bread is?

They used to have a falafal salad which was low in syns. And little mini cake bites which were about 6 syns each I think.

@RebeccaH1981 what did you end up having? I have a Costa date soon too!

A bit late to the party 😂 but I always had brown toast at Costa when I did slimming world, just counted suns for butter and told myself it was a B choice but I was quite relaxed with it

DontFundHate · 05/05/2019 09:01

Thats a good idea @greyspottedgoose I love toast! Can you remind me how many syns for a butter pat please?

@RebeccaH1981 granola slice sounds nice too! How many syns was that?

See, I would have just saved some Syns and had whatever the hell I wanted 😁

greyspottedgoose · 05/05/2019 09:19

I counted them as 2 syns for the 6odd gram portions

Groovee · 05/05/2019 15:13

I have a teacake at about 17 syns or a caramel shortbread at 20 syns.
