2 slices of a 12-inch pie (~200 g) has about 500 calories.
Why estimates miss: Margherita Pizza (2 slices) is a multi-ingredient dish. Thin-crust runs lower while thick-crust and extra cheese push calories well past this. Generic calorie apps undercount the hidden oil, sauce and portion — CalDesk AI's photo estimate is tuned to catch exactly this.
