WW Friendly Desserts: 8 Low Point Sweet Treats

You can still fit dessert into WW without using many Points. In this list, I’d boil it down to 8 simple picks: yoghurt bars, light ice cream, pudding pots, yoghurt with berries, fruit whip, baked apple, fruit with custard, and low-Point chocolate treats.


What stands out to me is this:

  • 3 desserts sit at 0 Points on many plans
  • Most others land at about 2–4 Points per serving
  • Portion size matters just as much as the food itself
  • Shop-bought items can change, so I’d always scan them in the WW app first
  • Add-ons like honey, peanut butter, chocolate chips, syrup, and butter can add 2–6 Points fast

So if you want the short version, here it is: I’d stick with plain fat-free Greek yoghurt, Skyr, and fruit as the base, then keep higher-Point extras small.

The 8 desserts covered are:

  1. Frozen Greek yoghurt bar
  2. Light ice cream
  3. Sugar-free pudding pot
  4. Fat-free Greek yoghurt with berries
  5. Frozen banana and mango whip
  6. Cinnamon-baked apple
  7. Fruit with low-fat custard
  8. Portion-controlled chocolate treat

How to Read the Points in This List

Use these Points as a quick guide for each dessert below. They’re estimates, not a guarantee. Before you eat anything, scan the product in the WW app, because brands and flavours can change the Points value.

Your WW plan matters too. Fat-free Greek yoghurt may be ZeroPoint on some plans, while whole fruit can count on the diabetes-tailored plan. So don’t guess. Check first.

Sugar-free is not automatically ZeroPoint. WW works out Points by looking at calories, protein, fat and sugar together. A fat-free, sugar-free instant pudding mix is a good example: it still has Points and still needs tracking.

AD

For homemade desserts in this list, use the WW Recipe Builder. Add each ingredient, then divide the total by the number of portions. A kitchen scale or measuring spoons can help you stay accurate.

With that in mind, here are eight low-Point desserts worth fitting into your day.

1. Frozen Greek Yoghurt Bar

Estimated WW Points: 0–3 per bar, depending on whether you make it at home or buy it ready-made.

Use fat-free plain Greek yoghurt as your base. Portion it so 1 bar equals 1 serving. Add fresh berries or sliced banana, then freeze. Keep it simple and you can get this down to 0 Points.

If you don’t want any prep, ready-made bars are the easy backup. Shop-bought WW dessert bars are usually around 3 Points each. So you still get a sweet treat without much effort.

AD

A small warning here: extras can add up fast. Honey, nut butter, chocolate chips and granola push the Points up in no time. If you want to keep them lower, use stevia or monk fruit instead of honey, and go for fresh fruit instead of dried.

If you want another low-Point sweet fix, the next option is just as simple.

2. Light Ice Cream

Estimated WW Points: varies by brand; pre-portioned bars are often 3 Points each.

If you want a freezer-fresh dessert with zero prep, light ice cream is one of many low-Point desserts that are simple picks. Pre-portioned bars, such as WW chocolate mousse bars, are often 3 Points each.

If you’re serving from a tub, keep it to about 120 ml (1/2 cup) and weigh the portion for accuracy. That small step can save you from accidentally turning a light dessert into a much bigger one.

AD

Toppings are where Points can climb fast. For example:

  • Honey adds 3 Points per tbsp
  • Semi-sweet chocolate chips add 6 Points per 3 tbsp
  • Peanut butter adds about 3 Points per tbsp

For 0-Point flavour, go with fresh berries, sliced banana or cinnamon.

If you want a fruit-based option next, the following dessert keeps things just as simple.

3. Sugar-Free Pudding Pot

Estimated WW Points: 2–3 Points per serving.

If you want a spoonable dessert after the frozen option, this is the easiest next pick. Ready-to-eat sugar-free, fat-free pudding pots usually come in at 2–3 Points per 99g–113g pot.

AD

You can also make your own with sugar-free, fat-free instant pudding mix and skimmed milk. It takes under five minutes and usually works out at 2–3 Points per 120 ml (½ cup). If you want it to feel a bit more like mousse, fold in a little fat-free whipped topping. That lands at about 2 Points per 120 ml serving.

The big thing to watch is add-ons. Whole milk and extras like honey (3 Points per tbsp) or semi-sweet chocolate chips (6 Points per 3 tbsp) can bump the Points up fast, so it’s worth scanning the barcode in the WW app before you dig in.

4. Fat-Free Greek Yoghurt with Berries

Estimated WW Points: 0 Points per serving.

Plain, fat-free Greek yoghurt and fresh berries are usually 0 Points. A 170g pot with berries on top still comes in at 0 Points.

This is about as easy as dessert gets. Grab a 170g pot, add pre-washed berries, and you’re done – no cooking, no prep, no fuss.

AD

It’s worth skipping flavoured yoghurts, as they usually need tracking. Fresh berries work well, and so do unsweetened frozen berries once thawed. Dried berries, on the other hand, usually add Points.

If you want a bit more flavour without changing the Points, stick to cinnamon or vanilla.

If you’re after that same fruity hit in a frozen dessert, the next option keeps things just as simple.

5. Frozen Banana and Mango Whip

Estimated WW Points: 0 Points, if made with plain fruit only.

Frozen banana and mango whip is just frozen fruit blended until it turns thick and creamy. A usual serving of about 150g is usually 0 Points on most WW plans, because bananas and mangoes count as ZeroPoint foods.

AD

Freeze ripe banana and mango chunks, then blitz them until smooth. That’s it. No added sugar. No cooking. If you want a sweet treat that takes almost no effort, this does the job.

One detail matters here: texture affects your Points. Keep it thick enough to eat with a spoon. If it becomes drinkable, you’ll need to track it as a smoothie. Want a bit more sweetness without changing the total? Try a pinch of cinnamon or a zero-calorie sweetener such as stevia.

Some add-ins can change the score fast:

  • A tablespoon of honey adds 3 Points
  • Maple syrup adds Points
  • Table sugar adds Points
  • Peanut butter adds Points

If you’re after something cold, soft, and spoonable, the next option is even easier.

6. Cinnamon-Baked Apple

Estimated WW Points: 0 Points, when made with just apple and cinnamon.

AD

If you want a warm dessert, this baked apple is hard to beat. A medium apple with cinnamon makes an easy 0-Point dessert on most WW plans. It’s warm, soft, and naturally sweet, so it fits into your day without much fuss.

The method is simple. Core an apple, dust it with cinnamon, then microwave it or bake it until soft. Once baked, the apple turns sweet enough on its own, so you don’t need to add sugar.

The main thing to watch is the topping. Points can climb fast:

  • Butter adds 2 Points per tsp
  • Honey, sugar, and maple syrup add 3–4 Points per tbsp
  • If you want more sweetness without using Points, try stevia or monk fruit

Shop-bought baked apples can look like the same thing, but they often come with added syrup or sugar. It’s worth scanning the label before you buy.

7. Fresh Fruit with Low-Fat Custard

Estimated WW Points: around 2–4 Points per serving, depending on the custard you use.

AD

If plain fruit feels a bit too simple, this is an easy way to make it feel more like pudding. It’s one of the easiest low-Point desserts you can make. Use 1 portion of fresh fruit, then add custard sparingly. Most of the Points come from the custard, so keep it to 120 ml (1/2 cup).

You can pair the fruit with a small pot of low-fat custard, or make a sugar-free version with skimmed milk. It’s worth scanning the pot in the WW app before you buy, because brands differ.

Leave out honey and sugar. If you want more sweetness, use a zero-calorie sweetener instead. And if you’re using tinned fruit, choose fruit in juice or water, not syrup.

If you want something even easier, the next dessert needs no cooking.

8. Portion-Controlled Chocolate Treat

Estimated WW Points: 2–4 Points per serving, depending on what you choose.

AD

If you’re after something chocolatey, you don’t have to write it off. Chocolate can still fit into the Weight Watchers point system when the portion stays small.

WW-branded bars are one easy pick. Double Chocolate Mousse and Chocolate Raspberry Cream come in at 3 Points per bar. Want something even smaller? A single Lindt Lindor truffle is 4 Points.

There’s also a simple homemade option. Mix 120 ml (½ cup) of fat-free whipped topping with half a packet of fat-free chocolate drink mix for about 2 Points. It’s a handy way to get that chocolate hit without spending too many Points.

For DIY treats, cocoa powder gives you more for less. It costs 1 Point per 3 tablespoons, while the same amount of semi-sweet chocolate chips costs 6 Points. That’s a big gap, and it can make homemade desserts much easier to fit in.

Sweeteners can change the maths fast. Honey, maple syrup, and agave syrup usually add 3–4 Points per tablespoon. So if you want to keep things lighter, stick with the base treat and add a few berries on top instead.

FAQs

Which WW plans count these desserts as 0 Points?

That comes down to the Weight Watchers plan you’re on. The programme has changed over the years, with versions like PointsPlus, SmartPoints, and myWW Blue, Green, and Purple. So a dessert that was 0 Points on one plan might not be 0 on another.

Always check the Points value for your plan in the official Weight Watchers app or database, because values can differ between programmes and ingredients.

How can I keep toppings low in Points?

Keep toppings low in Points by keeping an eye on portions and picking ingredients that bring flavour without piling on extra Points. A measuring spoon helps more than you’d think, because even a small drizzle of honey can add up fast.

For more flavour, try stevia or monk fruit for sweetness, cinnamon for a little extra lift, and plain non-fat Greek yoghurt or cottage cheese for a creamy finish. If you add more than one topping, track each one on its own.

AD

Which of these desserts is best for meal prep?

Chocolate mousse is a top pick for meal prep. You can make WW-style mousse pots or follow a mousse recipe ahead of time, then store them in an airtight container for easy grab-and-go portions.
