I also have sweet cravings and found that a few
dried pitted prunes, soaked in water overnight do the trick.
I put 3-4 prunes in a mug, cover with warm water so mug is half full. leave in fridge overnight and eat next day. Sometimes with natural yoghurt.
This also helps keep me regular so "kills two birds with one stone"
May not be suitable for everyone though as the prunes are
naturally quite sweet.
I avoid
tinned prunes in syrup as they would make me dump just looking at the tin
Although if I am away from home, I have resorted to buying tinned prunes in
apple/fruit juice and that does the trick.
