Dessert

Many with IC find that it is the sudden lack of dessert choices which they find most difficult to adjust to. A lot of common dessert ingredients simply can not be tolerated by most ICers. Culprits include coffee, chocolate (except white), most dried fruits, certain nuts, a lot of fruits (citrus, peaches, most berries, etc), and artificial preservatives. But all is not lost; working with in the parameters of the IC diet you can still create an almost endless array of desserts to satisfy even the sweetest tooth. Aim for recipes with white chocolate, honey, natural sugars, bladder friendly fruits, pastries, and almonds. When it comes to frozen treats… I scream, you scream – we all scream for ice cream! That childhood rhyme still rings true for many of us, but commercially prepared frozen treats can often be jam-packed with artificial ingredients and bladder-harmful foods. Instead try making your own frozen treats at home with ingredients like blueberries and blackberries, pears, vanilla, white chocolate, cinnamon, and honey. Even without an ice cream maker it is possible to make ice cream at home, it’s a little time consuming but well worth the sweet reward.
