About WENDY'S, Frosty Dairy Dessert
The Frosty is Wendy's signature frozen dairy dessert — thicker than a milkshake but softer than ice cream, served in a cup and eaten with a spoon or a straw. Made from a milk-and-cream base, it comes in chocolate and vanilla and has been a menu staple for decades.
Per 100 grams it is relatively light for a frozen dessert at about 132 calories, with roughly 2.6 grams of fat (about 1.6 grams saturated), 3.5 grams of protein and 24 grams of carbohydrate. The dairy base provides a solid amount of calcium — around 128 milligrams per 100 grams — plus some potassium. Portion is what matters most here: a small Frosty of around 225 grams comes to roughly 300 calories, and the larger sizes climb from there.
For a frozen treat the Frosty is fairly moderate per 100 grams, and the milk base contributes genuine calcium and protein. The calories add up with size, though, so a small or the kids'-size Jr. Frosty is an easy way to enjoy it while keeping the portion — and the sugar that comes with it — in check.
