Chocolate cheesecake calories come to 690 for one slice (175 g) and 394 per 100 g. That one slice is 34% of a 2,000-calorie day, and fat supplies 59% of its energy. Sugar adds up too, at 45.3 g per slice, so how thick you cut it matters more than anything else on the plate.

One slice is about a third of a day's calories
A standard slice of 175 g lands at 690 calories, which is 34% of the 2,000-calorie reference used on food labels. That is meal territory, not a small treat. Restaurant and bakery slices are often cut at this size or larger, so the default serving here is a realistic one, not a generous estimate.
The total climbs fast once you go back for more. Two slices reach 1,379 calories and 942 mg of sodium. Three slices hit 2,069 calories, more than the full daily reference on their own. A whole run of five slices, the kind of amount that disappears at a party over an evening, comes to 3,448 calories and 2,354 mg of sodium.
The easiest lever is the knife. A thinner wedge of 100 g brings the count down to 394 calories, or 20% of the daily reference, and it still delivers the full flavor. If you are sharing a cake, cutting smaller pieces does more for your totals than any swap of crust or topping.
Fat carries most of the calories
Of every calorie in chocolate cheesecake, 59% comes from fat, 36% from carbohydrates and only 6% from protein. Per 100 g that works out to 26.1 g of fat, 35.5 g of carbs and 5.7 g of protein. The cream cheese filling and butter crust explain the fat, while the sugar and chocolate account for most of the carbs.
The slice view makes the scale clearer. One 175 g slice holds 45.7 g of fat and 62.2 g of carbohydrates, against 10 g of protein. That protein figure covers 20% of the daily value, which is not nothing, but it arrives packaged with far more fat and sugar than you would get from a dedicated protein source.
Fiber is low at 1.6 g per 100 g and 2.8 g per slice. The chocolate adds a little of it compared with a plain slice, which has 0.9 g. Still, this is a dense, rich dessert with little bulk, which is why a slice can feel modest on the plate while carrying a large share of the day's energy.
Sugar and saturated fat are the rows to watch
Sugar is the standout number. There are 25.9 g of sugars in 100 g and 45.3 g in a single slice, so most of the carbohydrate on this label is sugar rather than starch. If you track added sugar, one slice can use up a large part of your day on its own.
Saturated fat is the other row that jumps out. At 14.2 g per 100 g, even a modest wedge comes close to the 20 g daily value for saturated fat, and a full slice goes past it. Cholesterol sits at 111 mg per 100 g against a 300 mg daily value, so a thin slice already covers more than a third of that reference.
Sodium is moderate for a dessert but not trivial. A slice carries 471 mg, which is 20% of the daily value, mostly from cream cheese and the crust. If you watch sodium, count it alongside whatever salty meal came before it rather than treating dessert as a sodium-free zone.
A slice fits best after a light meal
Because one slice is close to the size of a meal, the simplest way to make room for it is to keep the rest of that meal light. A lean protein with vegetables before dessert leaves more space than a heavy pasta dish would. Fresh berries on the side add volume and color without adding much to the total.
Coffee or tea without sugar pairs well with the bitterness of the chocolate and makes a smaller slice feel like a complete course. Splitting one slice between two people is another easy move, especially at restaurants where portions run large.
Store-bought versions such as Sara Lee, Suzy's or Archer Farms, and restaurant slices like The Cheesecake Factory Belgian Chocolate Cheesecake, vary in size and recipe, so check the label or menu before you log them. If you want a quick record of what you actually ate, BodyPal can log the slice from a photo.
How does chocolate cheesecake compare?
Here is how chocolate cheesecake compares with plain cheesecake, a chocolate cupcake and chocolate raisins, per 100 g and per usual serving.
Verdict: If you want the fewest calories in one sitting, pick the chocolate cupcake at 320 per serving, since a cup of chocolate raisins at 702 is no lighter than a slice. Plain cheesecake at 399 per 100 g is a near tie with chocolate at 394, so choose the flavor you prefer and control the slice size instead.
