1 croissant (~60 g) has about 270 calories.
Why estimates miss: Butter Croissant is a multi-ingredient dish. Laminated butter layers mean fat is much higher than a plain roll of the same size. Generic calorie apps undercount the hidden oil, sauce and portion — CalDesk AI's photo estimate is tuned to catch exactly this.
