Best Healthy Desserts
STAFF PICK: Even if you're not health- conscious, you'll drool over the sweets at Sprouts, 621 N. Fourth Ave. But just think, you can enjoy Chocolate Ecstasy cake and know you're eating in a way that produces no ill effects. Using only maple or rice syrup as sweeteners and organic whole wheat flour, the folks at Sprouts create cookies, cakes, pies and other concoctions. Some selections are even wheat-free. The baklava is spectacular, and wow, no butter, just canola oil. Almost always there is a raw apple pie on hand. The Almond Crunch Tofu Cheesecake is rich and sweet and so satisfying. Indulge! Your body will actually thank you for it.
