I have to agree with other posters. I have found that dark chocolate is great for killing the craving. If you live near an IKEA, their dark chocolate is 8 squares for 19g I beleive. Barely over a serving. And it is quite inexpensive. (I can rarely eat 8 squares). And I second the suggestion by another poster about savoring each bite...it really does help. Stick to European sweets - they tend to use much less sugar.
Remember, it's not about cutting ALL sugars out, it's about moderation and knowing what you are eating. If you deprive yourself in ANY diet of something you will crave it even more. If you want a peice of cake - then plan for it. Don't make it a regular thing, but a treat for when you have been doing really good.
