Calories and Nutrition Facts
I will start with an overview of the total calories.
Calories in Wendy’s Triple Berry Frosty
There are 320 calories in a small Triple Berry Frosty, about 10 more calories than the classic chocolate frosty. The majority (72%) of calories is derived from 53 grams of carbohydrates. Eight grams of fat makes up 19% of the total calories and the remaining 9% is from protein.
- Carbs: 215 calories
- Fat: 70 calories
- Protein: 35 calories
- Total: 320 calories in a small Frosty
The caloric breakout by nutrient is a rounded estimate based on the nutrition facts label sourced from the restaurant. Calories may vary by location, as a result of how it’s prepared, or due to topping choices.
Calories Vary by Size
The total calories vary based on the size ordered.
- Jr. Triple Berry Frosty: 200 calories
- Small Triple Berry Frosty: 320 calories
- Medium Triple Berry Frosty: 400 calories
- Large Triple Berry Frosty: 520 calories
Total Sugars
There are 53 grams of total carbohydrate in the small size Frosty. That includes 46 grams of sugars. At this time, Wendy’s does not provide a breakout between Natural Sugars vs Added Sugars.
However, note that Sugar is listed as the second ingredient. Because of that, I assume added sugars make up a high percentage of the total sugars.
To put this in context, the FDA recommends that an individual who consumes 2,000 calories per day limit the amount of Added Sugars to 50 grams. With 46 grams of sugar, this treat nearly hits that limit.

What is Annatto Extract?
Annatto is an orange/red condiment and food coloring derived from the seeds of the achiote tree. It is primarily used in foods for its coloring properties, creating a yellow or orange product.
The achiote tree is indigenous to Central and South America, Mexico, and the Caribbean. The seeds contain compounds called carotenoids, which provide the vibrant color.
Annatto is often used to develop a yellow color in butter, margarine, and cheeses. As a condiment, Annatto is used for its nutty, peppery aroma.
Allergens
The frosty ingredients include milk and/or soy.
