Persimmon Calories: Per 100 g, Per Fruit and Your Portion
Raw Japanese persimmon provides about 70 kcal per 100 g in the USDA reference record. A 168 g edible portion is about 118 kcal. Your fruit may be smaller or larger, so weigh the part you eat rather than treating every persimmon as one fixed serving.
Persimmon portion reference
| Edible portion | Estimated kcal |
|---|---|
| 100 g | 70 |
| 150 g | 105 |
| 168 g | 118 |
| 200 g | 140 |
Start with the part you actually eat
A persimmon on the counter and a persimmon in a food database are not automatically the same serving. Remove the stem and any uneaten pieces, then weigh the remaining fruit. For a shared plate, weigh your own portion instead of dividing the number of fruits by the number of people.
The calculation is straightforward: edible grams × 0.70 = estimated kcal. A 150 g portion is 105 kcal. Keep the weighing step separate from the nutrition lookup so that an accurate food match is not undermined by a guessed portion.
Fresh persimmon is not dried persimmon
Drying removes water, so a dried-fruit entry is a different food record. Do not apply the fresh-fruit number to a bag of dried persimmon or to a dessert with added sugar. Use the package label when you have one.
For a yogurt bowl, log persimmon, yogurt, nuts and honey separately. Photographing the finished bowl is convenient, but the fruit number alone cannot describe everything in it. Save the combination only after checking each component.
