Amuse bouche: Fixing something too sweet

If the flavor of something you are making, like a sorbet base or fruit coulis, is too sweet, add some lemon or other citrus juice. The acid in the citrus will cut through all the sugar in the recipe and provide a balanced sweet and tart flavor, instead of a cloyingly sweet product.
