While pudding is typically a sweet dessert, it can also be a savory dish. Because puddings come in so many forms, the calories and nutritional information varies greatly from one type to another. Dessert puddings like rice pudding, chocolate pudding, and tapioca pudding are often dairy-based which makes them high in calories. Savory puddings, such as Yorkshire pudding and suet pudding, may be high in saturated fat and low in nutritional value. Refer to the calorie counter or nutrition label for your favorite puddings to determine the calories and nutrition facts.
