Dried Mango Calories: the no-drama version

Dried mango calories explained simply. Learn how many calories are in dried mango, how it compares to fresh fruit, and smart ways to enjoy it — with links to benefits, recipes, and more.
Dried mango is a tasty, portable snack, but the calories are more concentrated than in fresh fruit. Removing water keeps all the flavour and nutrients but also raises the energy per gram.

How many calories are in dried mango?

On average, 100 g of dried mango contains around 300–320 kcal. A small portion of 40 g is about 130 kcal — similar to a small chocolate bar, but with fibre and vitamins. By comparison, fresh mango is only ~65 kcal per 100 g, so weight for weight, dried mango is much denser.

Portion size and balance

The easiest way to enjoy dried mango without overdoing it is to stick to a small handful. Pairing it with nuts, yoghurt, or other protein sources helps you feel full and balances the natural sugars. Choose unsweetened dried mango when possible to avoid extra added sugar.
