Homemade
The great thing about creating your own homemade ice cream is you get to see exactly what is going into your dessert. Want to cut some calories? Swap in Splenda instead of sugar. Prefer to consume less fat? Choose a lighter cream as your base. Plus, making it yourself means you don’t have to worry about added preservatives or artificial flavoring. You can guarantee all-natural goodness when you opt for making your dessert yourself.

Sorbet
Avoid the fats and calories of cream-based desserts with sorbet. It’s made with water and fruit flavors rather than dairy, so it won’t destroy your diet. Chapman’s sorbets are a mere 80 calories per serving and come in delicious flavors, such as raspberry and orange. They even offer a “rainbow” option so you can have every flavor you’re in the mood for. You get the cold, smooth feeling of ice cream without undoing all that work you did at the gym.

Gelato
Looking for a great way to end your date night without chowing down on a massive sundae? Gelato is the answer. With an abundance of stores to choose from in every city, it’s easy to find one near you. Or, if you want to bring the deliciousness home with you, give President’s Choice’s Fat-Free Chocolate Gelato a whirl. Because gelato has less air content than traditional ice cream, it has a denser mouth feel, which means you can consume less and still be satisfied. Once you try the creamy goodness of gelato, you won’t want to go back to boring old ice cream again!

Frozen Yogurt
Don’t go thinking that ice cream is the only way to get that decadent, smooth flavor. Frozen yogurt has made a lot of advancements since it first debuted, and some varieties are practically indiscernible from fat-loaded ice cream. Chapman’s Frozen Yogurt comes in everything from Rocky Road to Caramel Pecan Crunch, so your taste buds are sure to be pleased. And many of their flavors offer a mere 100 calories per serving, so you can get your treat without any of the guilt.

One-ingredient ice cream
We have one word for you and it’s bound to be your new best friend: bananas. Make your very own, single ingredient ice cream by freezing peeled and chopped bananas and then blending them in a food processor until they reach the perfect creamy texture. You can even throw in some dark chocolate pieces and mint extract for your very own nutritious mint chocolate chip variety. It doesn’t get healthier than this!
