So right now I’m on a “wedding diet.” I say “diet” in parenthesis because it’s not a real only eat grapefruit or obsessively count calories type diet. I don’t believe in those. This more of a “Go to the gym a lot and try not to eat sugary and fried crap or drink any beer diet.” Which is easier I guess, but also really hard because I love beer.
I also really love dessert, and forsaken it is really hard. Last night I was going through some pictures on flickr and all of the ghosts of desserts past kept leaping out at me like long lost friends. So, since I can’t have any dessert, I thought I would let you guys share in the torture with some of my favorite sweet shots from around the world.













Now I REALLY need some chocolate…
What’s your favorite international dessert?
Oh my god that cannoli! Stop it.
Now I need to go to the grocery store but nothing will come close to this of course.
Wow! These looks amazing! I might have to make a dessert-based bucket list. Thanks for the inspiration!
What a nice list. I think the one I would want to try the most would be that Peach cake! They all look great and since I already have a sweet tooth why not try them all.
You’re a jerk!
Just kidding. It all looks amazing… for some reason that ice cream from Argentina looks killer… *slurp*
A pistachio cannoli! Where has that thing been all my life. Cannoli’s have a special place in my heart since they are one of the few deserts my husband can eat, and pistachios are just delicious. Throw those two things together and I think my head might explode.
Oh my – that cannoli looks amazing! I’m a sucker for desserts as well. Chocolate is my weakness. To curb the cravings, try beet juice. It really works!
Best post ever…. I have the worst sweet tooth! I love mango sticky rice from Thailand, and ice cream from anywhere, flan from Mexico, churros con chocolate from Spain, waffles with powdered sugar in Amsterdam, I could go on and on haha.
They seems delicious especially Cheese and honey, so yummy. Can’t wait to grab one.
After reading your post I had to go out and get some ice cream 🙂 I am a sucker for desserts!! The tiramisu cups in Rome look amazing – have to look out for them next time we’re there 😀
I visited Xi’an about a week ago now and discovered those hand-blown sugar animals there too! I thought they were ballon animals at first 🙂 I wrote a post on my blog that mentions them actually. You can also get red bean ice cream here in Beijing too – it’s soooo good! 🙂 R ~~~
