    Try these:-

    - baked apple with cinnamon (naturally sweet with few calories)

    - low fat, plain vanilla ice cream (without toppings)

    - frozen yogurt

    - canned fruit with a little low fat, whipped cream (a great substitute for ice-cream)

    - fruit salad

    - sliced apple with 2 teaspoons of peanut butter

    - microwave popcorn (air popped and without covering it with toffee or melted butter)

    - blueberry smoothie

    - 3/4 cup of frozen diced mango

    - plain yogurt with seeds, honey or some pureed fruit

    - frozen banana pop (half a banana coated in a little plain yogurt and frozen)

    - slow churned ice-cream

    If you like yogurt you could have a half a cup of that with strawberries and/or raspberries on top. The fruit adds sweetness. You could also buy some bananas and let them sit on the counter to get really ripe, like almost black, then open them, cut them up into chunks, put them in a bowl and then cover them and put them in the freezer for a few hours or until they are frozen. Then, put them in a blender and blend until whipped and the consistency of ice cream. Its AMAZING and a great healthy alternative to ice cream. You can also add some almond milk and unsalted natural peanut butter to blend with them as well.

    They also sell low calorie snacks like chocolate and brownies in the sanck aisle at the supermarket if you want to try that.

    Try out dark chocolate covered almonds! Love those.

    A great substitute for when you're craving ice cream, banana "ice cream"! Freeze a banana, then once frozen puree it in a blender until it's smooth. It tastes so good, much like ice cream. :) You can also adds things to change up the flavor, if you want, like a teaspoon of cinnamon or cocoa powder, chopped nuts, a dollop of yogurt, some coconut, other fruits, whatever you'd like! Here's what it looks like: http://www.thekitchn.com/how-to-make-creamy-ice-cr...

    Frozen grapes are really yummy too, and taste like candy to me.

    Others I've favorited and love: Cadbury truffles http://www.fitsugar.com/Vegan-Cadbury-Egg-Recipe-2... Note; just use Neufchatel cheese or nonfat cream cheese instead of the whole vegan thing. There's a lot of other great desserts on that site (fitsugar) as well! :)
