Watching your line without forgetting your pleasure: is it really possible? Even if the health situation drastically limits the temptations of delicacies at the end of a restaurant meal, the moment of dessert can be tricky even at home, at the bakery or during meals in small groups.
Which desserts to favor at the bakery?
If facing the window of your pastry chef, you cannot find your way around or that the temptations are multiple, know that not all desserts are created equal.
In order to savor a delicacy without feeling guilty and keep the line, go your way on the macaroons, the mille-feuilles, the chocolate pies or the cakes based on whipped cream or pastry cream. Rich in fats and sugars, all provide more than 400 calories to your body.
The least caloric desserts at the pastry chef remain the fruit tarts, the clafoutis or the pastry flan. With 140 calories, the portion of flan garnished with fruit provides fiber and vitamins to your body.
What desserts to end on a sweet touch at home?
Low-calorie alternatives exist to savor a sweet product at the end of a meal.
Fruit compote, panna cotta, fruit mousse, fruit salad or even sorbets are perfect light and gourmet desserts.
During a diet or to maintain your healthy weight, pastries are not prohibited and especially not to be avoided. The ideal remains to allow yourself small pleasures from time to time in order to avoid food cravings or possible nibbling. You can also lighten your own cakes by choosing alternatives to calorie ingredients.
