My all time favourite treat is a Tunnocks caramel wafer biscuit! Oh the lovely chocolate and chewy sensation of the wafer inside -heavenly!

Crunchie !

Dark chocolate whole cherry liqueur chocs - especially at Christmas. Failing that then it has to be plain Bounty, Fry's Turkish Delight or Crunchier smile

Fry’s chocolate cream or chocolate fudge or plain Bounty or my homemade lemon and raspberry ice cream.

The " purple ones" from Quality Street.
I love chocolate and nuts...

Tunnock's tea cake, Star Bar or a home made pavlova. The list could be long!

Syrup tart. Runner up lemon meringue pie. Dh doesn’t eat anything sweet, not worth making for one (I would pig myself) so I always choose if on menu.

The other thing we are both longing for is lardy cake from local family bakery. Not had any since February cos of self isolating. Sob!

Peanut butter ice cream!

Lindor truffles, chocolate nuts, dark chocolate nougat.

Chocolate or cheesecake

dragonfly46 I was going to say I much prefer cheese but didn't want the thread to go off topic! Oh cheese and wine. Heaven!

I am with you LadyStardust. I am not keen on sweet things.

LadyStardust Fri 13-Nov-20 16:33:39

Is wine classed as a sweet treat? Failing that a Frys Turkish Delight. (yes, I sang that as I was typing) grin

A Coffee Walnut Whip, if I can find one.

Chocolate raisins! Mmmm.

Gwenisgreat1 Fri 13-Nov-20 16:08:11

Chocolate in any form!!

Whitewavemark2 Fri 13-Nov-20 16:06:07

Ooh nougat! And chocolate marzipan!

suziewoozie Fri 13-Nov-20 16:03:28

Nougat glacé as a pudding, nougat as a sweet.

Pistachio ice cream

Whitewavemark2 Fri 13-Nov-20 15:50:44

Once a year at Christmas we order hand made chocolates and they are divine.

Greyduster Fri 13-Nov-20 15:49:45

Crunchie bars but, my goodness, are they bad for your teeth!

Bluebellwould Fri 13-Nov-20 15:48:04

A can of caffeine free, sugar free, carb free coke. Oh and a fat free low carb vanilla yogurt. Sad aren’t I.

I'm afraid it has to be Toblerone. I only just found out recently that the way to snap off the triangles is to push them towards the stack, not try to pull one off. Works much better!

tanith Fri 13-Nov-20 15:45:49

Fruit and nut chocolate.

Fennel Fri 13-Nov-20 15:42:49

Cadbury's Milk Wholenut Chocolate.

kittylester Fri 13-Nov-20 15:35:41

Chocolate coated Brazil's, crisp mint chocolate, raspberry cupcakes made by my friend and, because it's Christmas (!!!) meltis fruits.
