Each season on The Biggest Loser, we watch the contestants sweat their way to a healthier body and a brand new lease on life. But the dramatic changes that unfold on our television screens are only part of the story. To be successful at home, the contestants have to develop strategies and sustainable habits they can maintain for the long haul. And that includes learning how to satisfy sweet cravings—and keep deprivation at bay.

In The Biggest Loser Dessert Cookbook, best-selling author Chef Devin Alexander shows you how to indulge sensibly with more than 80 guilt-free recipes made from wholesome, all-natural ingredients.

• Rediscover your passion for fruit with desserts like the Naked Apple Tart, Cherry-Vanilla Almond Parfait, and Strawberry Cloud Soufflés
• Cool down your cravings with frozen treats such as the Waffle Ice Cream Sandwich, Mango-Peach Key Lime Sorbet Popsicles, and Pumpkin Ice Cream 
• Share your sweets with a crowd with bake-sale favorites like Fudge Swirl Peanut Butter Cupcakes, Go Blue-Berry Cobbler Mini Loaves, and Pecan Praline Cookie Thins
• Sip your way to satisfaction with the Mango Lassi Milkshake, Peach No-Belly Bellini, and Icy Chai Shake

1.0 out of 5 stars Not for real people who live in the real world December 10, 2010
By Anjjers
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book is not for those of us who live and function in the real world. Most of the ingredients or at least key ingredients-such as agave nectar, fat free fruit juice sweetened yogurt, finely shredded unsweettened reduced fat coconut are not readily available to the average person/market. May not break the calorie budget with these dessert recipes but will certainly break the food budget with all the specialty ingredients. Never mind that the author believes that we have enough time to process our own non-processed wheat flour and so forth. Hugely disappointed in this book.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not impressed January 17, 2011
Format:Paperback
I really enjoy sweets and hoped this book would suggest some lower calorie or healthier treat recipes to appease my sweet tooth. Basically this is just a series of regular recipes made with rather high cost and hard to find substitutes like coconut sugar. And if you are allergic to agave nectar - forget it! This book uses gallons of it.
Save your money and experiment with substitutes on your own.
The recipes aren't even that low calorie.
The only reason this didn't get a two-star from me was that I enjoyed reading bits from people on the show but these are not the main focus of the book. It was a disappointment.

Looking back now at the five-star reviews, I strongly suspect a couple to be schills. Sorry I was taken in.

I have three of Devin's cookbooks and I've become a huge fan of Devin Alexander. I've been able to follow all her recipes and pretty much found all the ingredients needed for the recipes. I'm so happy the recipes focus on great taste and natural ingredients. I've even learned of products that I didn't know existed! Such as stevia diet soda. I now love 'em.

I'm currently drinking a skinny temple as we speak. For thanksgiving I took a batch of the coconut macaroons and they were all eaten in 2 minutes! Then I let everyone know they were a light version!

I'm excited to try all the other recipes in the book. The book also has Devin's famous brownies! They are the best. A word of caution, they are so good that you must exercise self control. I only make them when I'm going to share. Otherwise I'd have 12 of them all by myself. Delicious!!

I'll be making the pumpkin bites this weekend. I'm sure they'll be great too!!

All in all another great book by Devin Alexander!

I kind of wish Biggest Loser would get on the band wagon or Organic / Non Processed / Etc. It seem a lot of these and recipes in their other books have the "semi home made"... Read more
