Contest: ENTER Misc. Avatar Contest: How Sweet It Is!

[scotpens]

The theme of this contest is those sugary guilty-pleasure foods we eat as desserts, snacks or just sweet treats. Since we've already done "Candy From Around the World," let's exclude confections that would be considered "candy."

No media images, please. Usual rules: maximum dimensions 200 by 200 pixels, maximum file size 1 MB. You may enter as many times as you like.

I'll start off with three classics:

Cheesecake

The much-maligned Hostess Twinkie

The Great American Ice Cream Sundae

My favourite cake in all the world....

Black Forest Cake

 

[Kai "the spy"]

My favourite cake in all the world....

Black Forest Cake

I considered that, simply because I'm from the region (well, Freiburg, right at the bottom of the Black Forest), but I never eat it because of the Kirschwasser in it.

Bumping this to the top. I'd like to get a few more entries before posting the voting thread.

Cupcakes, for when you feel the need to shove a whole cake in your mouth.

And really, when doesn't one?

Sticky Pecan Cinnamon Rolls

I can't have sugar any more --- but this is my favorite --- In my memories of sugary foods.. BTW for me this is one of the essential food groups. ---

I'm actually surprised there haven't been more entries. (Or maybe I just have an unhealthy obsession with this topic...)

OK, let's put out a few more:

Apple Crisp. I love this stuff. And it's got apples in it, so it's healthy... right?

Nanaimo Bars. A Canadian classic, named for the community in BC. TBF, I think these exist outside of Canada, too; they're just probably called something else.

Chocolate Lava Cake. Yes, another cake. TBH, I could probably have limited my entries just to cakes, and still not run out!

The classic Chocolate Brownie. So easy to make, and yet so, so delicious... a chocolate lover's dream come true!

I could keep going (and going, and going), but I should probably stop here to leave some options for others in case they want to enter more too!
