Try Whipping Cream...
I have a little trip to Starbucks a couple times per week and the helpful workers there make me a Whipping Cream Latte. I get the smallest one and I get it iced (less room for WC). All told, I consume about 4-5 ounces of whipping cream, 1/2 the cup is ice, and 1-2 shots of expresso and no sweeteners. At first the girl behind the counter laughed as she was making the drink. I told her I was on a special diet and she said "a lot of people actually order these drinks." She just can't believe how we can lose fat while drinking fat. Just my little secret.
Here's my summary from Fitday for an "Iced Tall Whipping Cream Latte"
1 shot express & 5 ounces whipping cream

It's a bit high in fat, calories but with only 5 carbs, I consider it a great snack!
