Using the Homemade pizza nutrition calculator calculator: an example

Below are example ingredient estimates used to demonstrate the calculation.

Step-by-step calculation:

• Crust — 12" thin crust: crust_calories = 900 kcal
• Sauce — Tomato, 4 tbsp: sauce_calories = 40 kcal
• Cheese — Mozzarella, 8 oz: cheese_calories = 640 kcal
• Toppings — Pepperoni + mushrooms: toppings_calories = 260 kcal → total_calories = 900 + 40 + 640 + 260 = 1,840 kcal

Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate are the calorie estimates?

These are approximate values based on typical ingredient data. For higher accuracy, use exact product labels or weigh ingredients precisely.

Can I change serving sizes?

Yes. Adjust ingredient amounts (for example, cheese ounces or sauce tablespoons) and the calculator will update totals accordingly.

Do crust type selections affect nutrition directly?

Crust choices reflect typical calorie differences and are used to estimate crust calories. Replace with exact recipe values if available for improved precision.

How can I get per-slice values?

Divide the total calories and macros by the number of slices. For example, 1,840 kcal ÷ 8 slices = 230 kcal per slice.
