Tag: Calories per flake

While a single corn flake contains a negligible fraction of a calorie, the size and type of the 'flake' you're eating dramatically changes the nutritional profile. The seemingly simple question, 'how many calories does one flake have?', serves as an excellent starting point for understanding how to accurately interpret nutrition labels and apply effective portion control in your daily nutrition diet.

While calculating the precise calories in a single flake of cereal is impractical due to its negligible weight, an estimated average of a corn flake is around 0.18 kcal based on nutritional data. The answer depends entirely on whether you mean a light cereal piece or a crumbly chocolate bar.
