I believe the sugar in most coffee shop items is more than enough. One teaspoon of sugar is about 5 grams, most snacks have 5 to 15 teaspoons per serving! That does not include the white flour and starch that your body will process as more sugar.
The brain will confuse hunger with a need for more sugar, so you eat when you aren't hungry, just looking for the rush.

Bagels, particularly multigrain bagels, have less calories and therefore may be a better option. Just don't use too much butter or cream cheese! Even better, bring your own snacks with you. For example, a low fat cereal bar or a homemade muffin. You'll also save money because baked goods in most coffee chains tend to be overpriced!

A better cheaper drink at Starbucks that packs no fat and calories is green tea. Starbucks has the Tazo brand which is one of the best tasting green tea available. Last year at Starbucks, I only paid .44 cents for a cup.
Also, I feel a bicotti is still too fatty and calorie dense. I suggest you skip the sweet baked goods totally.

Don't give up your cappuchino just yet. Try ordering a Cafe Latte, with non-fat milk (it is actually much better than the regular milk and the natural sugar in the milk tastes sweet enough) and then sprinkle just a little cocoa powder on top of the froth and a shake of cinnamon and it tastes great!!!

Scone? Instead of a high calorie scone, at Starbucks try ordering their "Low-fat Oat fruit scone".
It's delicious, low in fat and full of fiber. Enjoy with you non-fat latte.

I can say that the calories I take in, I do not burn all of it off. I try not to go out to coffee houses too much. But today we had Chinese food, and Dairy Queen. I wish society would pay attention to products like VEMMA.
