Do you like dark chocolate, 85% stuff like green and blacks stuff has 4.5g carbs per 6 little squares, I only eat 4 at a time and that makes me happy for a chocolate fix also Aldi do Moser Roth 85% in 25g bars 5 bars in a pack they are just under 5g carbs per bar too and are lovely x
 
I make up strawberry sugar free jelly, pour over some strawberries and when set, whipped cream on top with some dark chocolate shavings. It's my special version of trifle 🙂

Ooh, that sounds really lovely! Might give it a go...
 
As an occasional treat I have a small fresh cream eclair they are not too carby. I can't eat that really dark chocolate and if I need a chocolate fix I buy an atkins high protein low carb bar but not very often as they are pricey and I have found that my longing for all things sweet have diminished the less I have . do eat no sugar jelly with cream though if my grandson doesn't eat it all first x lol x
