Milkshakes
The creamy, frothy texture of a milkshake is satisfying to start with, and the addition of even the tiniest amount of vanilla extract go a long way in terms of sweetness. You can make a custom shake filled with all of the healthy fruit that you love, and give it that sweet kick with the vanilla or even a sprinkling a cinnamon. Healthy and delicious! This is one of my favorite healthy ways to indulge your sweet tooth.

Avocados
Avocados aren’t just great for spreading on toast, they can also be used as an alternative base for a rich chocolate pudding! Pure cocoa powder with avocado makes for a deceptively sweet and healthy alternative to a traditional dessert base. You won’t believe it until you have tried it for yourself!

Healthy Cookies
Believe it or not, there is such a thing as healthy cookies! These no bake treats are perfect for keeping a healthy diet and enjoying some sweetness. All you need is some natural peanut butter, raw honey, some coconut oil, vanilla extract, oats and cocoa powder. Roll into balls and there’s no need to even bake!

Tropical Tastes
You can trick your brain in to thinking it is enjoying lots of sugar by indulging in things like mangoes, pineapples and coconuts. They have a natural sweetness to them that doesn’t come with unhealthy additives. Something like a fruit salad comprised of tropical fruits is perfect for a sweet tooth.

Bananas
Eat as many bananas as you can, from adding them to milkshakes to freezing them and pretending they are ice cream sticks. When you really need to add some chocolate to the mix, a frozen banana dipped in some melted dark chocolate is a sweet treat that still isn’t quite as bad as milk chocolate or white chocolate based desserts!

Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.
Melon
Again, melon is a wonderful fruit that can help to trick your brain in to getting its sweet fix. A few freshly chilled scoops of melon are a deliciously cold and sweet snack to indulge in. It almost feels like one of those classic machine slushies, but without all of the crazily unhealthy additives and E-numbers that make the liquids so vividly coloured! Believe me, a fresh melon slushie is sweet enough and healthy enough to satisfy even the biggest sweet tooth!
