calories in a cupcake? 1, 2, 3.....go!

  • I ate a gross chocolate cupcake at work today. Ugh. I wish I hadn't now, but I'm logging my food for today and I don't know how many calories it had. What would your guess be? Im thinking 400?
  • Do you happen to know the brand, or how much frosting? I'm seeing everything from 280ish(stuff that is grocery store bought, usually comes in plastic containers with 6 or so in them) to almost 600 (large bakery cupcake with sugary frosting) with a google search. 450 or so seems like a good middle ground.
  • It was from a grocery store. It was a pack of 12. There was frosting but not a ton. It was colored frosting, not sure if that makes a difference.
  • I'd probably call it 350-400, but it's the sort of thing that's hard to estimate.
  • Thank you. I don't usually eat things that I cant count calories for, and I probly won't again.
