Syrup works well. Also, as a kid, I used to love Fussell's condensed skimmed milk. I guess you don't get it there though. Both those stick nicely to your fingers so you can lick them off. Or, if you don't care about protocol, you can stick your fingers right into your mouth.:-6

You can stick your fingers in the Fussells then into a bowl of sugar for some real texture contrast too.:-6

Horlicks:D I love using my finger as a lollypop and dabbing it in and out of the horlicks jar. Peanut butter is good too, crunchy or smooth, both lick right off...

Cake mix, especially chocolate brownie mix, finger lickin gooood:D

Pumpkin pie, apple pie, fresh rolls, candied yams, salad, some type of veggie, stuffing. Snackies before-cheese selection with crackers, nachos, and chocolate covered cherries-for me!
