Are you someone who prefers desserts that are NOT chocolate?

I’ve always loved chocolate, but alas… I can no longer eat sweets! : ((

Nope. If it isn’t chocolate, it isn’t worth the calories. Unless maybe it’s my own apple pie with a scoop of vanilla ice cream.

I like to mix up my desserts. There are too many good desserts out there to stick to just one variety.

I LOVE chocolate…I like sweets…I like anything!

I have a terrible sweet tooth. I could live forever without junk food but I love sugar. haha
Chocolate is great but I really love ice cream, pie and cheesecake and strawberry shortcake and butterscotch pudding and tapioca pudding, and creme puffs, and, and….oh god, time for bed before I go rummaging for a snack. Hey, I have lost 8.4 lbs. in 4 weeks, that was the Xmas goodies. lol

I am a person who prefers desserts, I think I would literally die without anything sweet. May I never taste anything savory again, but take away the sweet part, and I’m a broken person, less of a human!

@CaptainHarley My condolences.

I like chocolate but I can’t resist a good creme brûlée.

I can think of plenty of desserts I enjoy that don’t contain chocolate (simple ones include a honey crepe or guava paste and Havarti.) I love chocolate, but I don’t need it to indulge my sweet tooth.

Oh yes, I love to lick the wife’s cream pie.

I don’t even like chocolate desserts, so…...

Since I’m allergic to chocolate, I just don’t eat it.

People think their guests will love anything chocolate…. and most do. But, when I’m served chocolate, I have to decline. You should see the looks I get!

I prefer vanilla or caramel desserts…

I prefer fruit desserts (i.e. apple anything) or cake (any kind of cake). I am usually one not to order chocolate anything off a restaurant menu. Once in a while, I like a flourless chocolate cake, if it’s served right, meaning warm.

Yes. I’m not a huge fan of chocolate, unless it’s combined with other things. My favorite flavor of ice cream is vanilla, and I’d take butterscotch or caramel sauce on it over chocolate sauce any day. I do eat chocolate candy bars, but only if they have other stuff in them, especially crunchy stuff. I can tolerate chocolate chip cookies, but would much rather have a white chocolate, macadamia and toffee cookie.

I’m a big lemon/lime fan. In reviewing a dessert menu, the chocolate options are usually my least favored. A notable exception, however, are the souffles with the molten chocolate center. Mmmmmmmm.

@picante Oooh yes, I forgot how much I love lemon merangue and key lime pie.

My favourite desserts include toffee or caramel based puddings. I can take or leave chocolate.

@Leanne1986 I love Skor & Heath bars, my favorite candy bar. Toffee…mmm. :-)

I can’t recall ever craving dessert as much as I do now . . . OMG

@picante Haha…the power of suggestion ey?
I’m fine right now, still having my morning coffee but reading this last night at 10 0’ clock just about killed me. The only sweets I have in the house are a little bowl of Jolly Rancher Cinnamon candies. Not even close to being a fix for a sweet tooth run wild. lol

The older I get the more I crave chocolate.
Prior I was a more vanilla kind of person.
LOVE Blue Bell vanilla (not the vanilla bean one) ice cream – taste’s like home made!

Yes. I’m really fussy and quite limited with desserts due to dairy-protein intolerance. No ice-cream or any other raw dairy (except cheese or yogurt), I can have chocolate in limited amounts but I’m not particularly keen on it. On most menus that doesn’t leave me with much choice, but I like fruitcake, lemon meringue/key lime pie, fruit pies & tarts, treacle sponge, fresh fruit.

I’m diabetic, so it is fruit desserts for me.

I apologize to anyone I may have caused distress by asking this question. Is there a NSFO sign for questions about tempting food?

The older I get the more hedonistic I have become. I think it’s a “life is short” and we have to die, of SOMETHING! Might as well be good food, drink and a happy brownie on occasion. NOW that’s my favorite dessert, a brownie with a bang to it. lololol ;-)

@Sunny2 Haha…I enjoy any Q that allows for some play and humor.

I like milk chocolate in candy bars and I like chocolate chip cookies well enough, but I really don’t like chocolate cake or pudding or mousse or ice cream or chocolate cookies. To me, those things are super-sweet (which I don’t like at all) and are often somewhat bitter to me. Oreo cookies are the worst of the worst.

If I had to eat chocolate cake, I would prefer to eat German chocolate cake which is much less sweet and has the wonderful added flavors of coconut and caramel.

I prefer lemon desserts, especially lemon bundt cake with lemon glaze. I also like creme brulee and panna cotta and blueberry and boysenberry pies (although I don’t like apple or cherry pie). I love glazed donuts and cinnamon rolls and strawberry shortcake and peanutbutter cookies and banana bread and mint icecream and spumoni ice cream and Chunky Monkey ice cream and just about anything with cranberries or pumpkin in it. And don’t forget about coconut macaroons! Who needs chocolate?

Kind of off topic, but ties in. I read somewhere once that salt and sugar are scarce in nature and this is why we tend to crave both. It makes sense, hundreds and thousands of years ago the few natural sources of sugar were limited to honey and maybe sugar cane of you lived in a sugar cane tropical zone. Some fruits of course too,
I believe it, I would have risked a thousand bee stings to get to that honey comb. haha

Cheesecake!
