Thanks so much, Dreamweaver -- I may wait a bit before trying it: it's been so cold that I am drinking warm soy milk today, but I know the day will come when a cool cap will taste good.

Greetings to Dreamweaver and the other Tm's-addicted Canucks! From one TH addicted to all the others, Ice Caps truly are my favourite too! Where I live in Toronto, there are two Tim's within 3 blocks of where I live, and most of my neighbours in my co-op seem never to have heard of coffee makers -- there's a steady stream of them going to Tim's every day -- and I try not to join them.
You're right, Dreamweaver -- they are loaded with sugar and now that I'm drinking my coffee black, an Ice Cap sets my teeth on edge -- but I still love them. Making them at home would be special treat, so I hope you share your recipe!

| Tim Horton's ice capps have a lot of sugar in them. I started making my own at home.

Thanks, I checked the site and didn't like what I saw. Do you live in Canada, I live in Mississauga, Ont.
I get weighted tomorrow so we will see what happens.
Thanks Susan

I think they are about 250 calories for 10 oz.
You can check the nutrition in Tim Horton's items at
www.timhortons.com
It is the cost of the iced caps that keeps me from enjoying them very often. :)

If there is anyone out there from Canada, you will know about Tims fabulous Ice Cappachino's. I have been addicated to them. and they caused me to gain ten pounds. Now I am trying to lose the weight before I go on vaction. Today, I walked 5 miles on the Trend Mill just so I could get an Ice Cap and not blow my diet. I need help to try and stop buying these drinks. I have them using 2% milk rather in then cream.
Any wise of wisdom out there?????
