Pizza nutrition data, without the mystery

Every reference number used by our pizza calculators, its serving unit, its current evidence status, and the method required before we call it verified.

Dataset version 0.2.0 · Last reviewed August 25, 2026 · Maintained by SwapMyCraving editorial review

Calculator evidence status: provisional. The eight calculator values were inherited from the site's original reference set. One egg-white model below now has reproducible ingredient arithmetic, but none of the eight calculator values is presented as a verified recipe, lab result, product label, or like-for-like study.
Quick answer: In this reference set, an egg-white crust slice has the lowest listed value at about 140 calories, while a fathead crust slice has the highest at about 280. That does not prove one option is universally lowest: a slice, filled cap, pepper boat, and personal flatbread are different serving units.

First reproducible calculation: egg-white personal pizza

Calculation-backed Recipe version 0.1-calculated. This is the first entry with frozen ingredient weights, named source records, and arithmetic that another reader can reproduce. It has not been kitchen-tested, weighed after cooking, photographed, or reviewed as a physical serving, so it is not a verified recipe.

Conditional answer: For this exact three-ingredient model—200g raw egg white, 56g low-moisture part-skim mozzarella, and 60g no-salt-added tomato sauce—the whole personal pizza calculates to 285.28 calories, 35.792g protein, 7.1324g total carbohydrate, and 11.944g fat. If it is cut into two equal halves, one declared half calculates to 142.64 calories, 17.896g protein, 3.5662g total carbohydrate, and 5.972g fat. These numbers apply only to these weights and source records.

Example formula: mozzarella calories = 56 ÷ 100 × 298 = 166.88 kcal. The same operation is applied to protein, total carbohydrate, and fat for every ingredient; contributions are summed before display rounding.

Draft preparation protocol

  1. Whisk 200g raw egg white until foamy and spread it as one thin personal-pizza base on a lined pan.
  2. Bake until the egg-white base is fully set. Temperature and time remain deliberately unspecified until a kitchen test records them.
  3. Top with 60g tomato sauce and 56g low-moisture part-skim mozzarella, then heat until the cheese melts.
  4. Cut the finished pizza into two equal halves. Record cooked yield, each half's weight, photos, preparation time, and reviewer before physical verification.

Why this does not replace the calculator yet: the old provisional slice was 140 calories, 18g protein, 4g carbs, and 4g fat. The calculated half is close on calories, protein, and carbohydrate, but is about 6g fat. That mismatch and the missing physical-serving evidence keep the calculator entry provisional.

The current reference dataset

These values are useful for rough planning only. Keep the serving unit attached to every number, and use a current package or restaurant label whenever one exists.

What “verified” will mean here

STEP 1 · DEFINE

Freeze a recipe version

Record every ingredient in grams, the cooked yield, number of servings, serving name, and preparation method.

STEP 2 · SOURCE

Attach a dated source

Use the exact current product label first. For a homemade ingredient, record the USDA FoodData Central ID and data type.

STEP 3 · CALCULATE

Keep raw precision

For each nutrient: weight g ÷ 100 × source value per 100g. Sum ingredients, divide by declared yield, then round only for display.

STEP 4 · REVIEW

Check the physical serving

Rebuild the recipe, photograph the full yield and one serving, verify the serving count, and log who reviewed the result and when.

Evidence labels

Official source registry

These records are registered as ingredient inputs for recipe reconstruction. Three are now attached to the calculation-backed egg-white model above; that arithmetic still does not validate a calculator total until the prepared recipe and serving yield are physically checked.

Source policy and limitations

  1. A current official manufacturer or restaurant label overrides any generic value on this site.
  2. For defined homemade recipes, we prefer USDA FoodData Central. Its data-type documentation explains why records can differ by source and purpose.
  3. The FDA label guide is our serving-size rule: nutrient values belong to the serving stated on the label, and serving size is not a recommendation.
  4. Total carbohydrate is shown unless the exact label or recipe supplies fiber. We do not infer universal net carbs.
  5. This is not medical advice, a laboratory analysis, or proof of weight-loss or ketosis outcomes.

Verification queue

The egg-white personal pizza now has a calculation-backed v0.1 entry. Its next gate is a real kitchen test with cooked yield, serving weights, photos, time/temperature notes, and a named reviewer. Portobello boat, chicken crust, and cauliflower crust remain queued because they anchor the site's vegetable-base, higher-protein, and lower-carb comparisons.
