1 danish (75g) has about 280 calories.
Why estimates miss: Cheese Danish is a multi-ingredient dish. The laminated pastry means fat, not sugar, drives most of the calories. Generic calorie apps undercount the hidden oil, sauce and portion — CalDesk AI's photo estimate is tuned to catch exactly this.
