Bean cake calories: 132 per 1 cake (32 g)
This exact USDA record reports 132 calories for 1 cake (32 g). That answer belongs to this description and weight; it is not a universal value for every meal that shares the name.

The editorial read
The useful answer has a weight, a composition, and an identity
Portion: the cited record reports about 132 calories for 1 cake at 32 grams. On a fixed-weight basis, the same record contains 414 calories per 100 grams. The first number answers a portion question; the second answers a concentration question.
Composition: that source amount also reports 1.9 g protein, 1 g fiber, and 60 mg sodium. Read those values together: a calorie total by itself cannot describe the nutrient profile.
Identity: the largest listed formulation input is flour, wheat, all-purpose, enriched, bleached, representing 27.3% of the record’s listed input weight. The record contains 8 source-input rows in all. These are provenance for a standardized calculation, not a recipe for your plate.
The source calls its underlying survey portion “Quantity not specified,” but it separately lists 1 cake at the identical weight. We use the familiar household label here without changing the source calculation.
Record-specific decision brief
What the numbers say—and what choice still belongs to you
This analysis belongs to USDA FDC 2707409: “Bean cake.” It separates gram-weight arithmetic, corpus context, label signals, and record selection so one number does not have to answer four different questions.
01 · Portion arithmetic
Three weights, one fixed composition
For FDC 2707409, each row multiplies the published per-100-gram values by its stated weight. “75% of the reference weight” through “125% of the reference weight” are weight scenarios: named measures come from USDA, while percentage labels are transparent arithmetic.
| Scenario | Weight | Energy | Protein | Fiber | Sodium |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 75% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 24 g | 99 kcal | 1.4 g | 0.7 g | 45 mg |
| 1 cakeUSDA-listed household measure | 32 g | 132 kcal | 1.9 g | 1 g | 60 mg |
| 125% of the reference weightArithmetic scenario from the reference weight | 40 g | 166 kcal | 2.3 g | 1.2 g | 74 mg |

03 · FDA label lens
The strongest strength-side and tradeoff-side signals
At FDC 2707409’s 32 g reference weight, none of the compatible strength-side nutrients evaluated here reaches 5% Daily Value; the larger tradeoff-side percentage is Saturated fat. Percentages use FDA label Daily Values, whose general “high” guide begins at 20% Daily Value. This is not an overall score or a personalized target.
Strength-side signals
No compatible strength-side nutrient evaluated here reaches 5% DV at this reference weight, so this page does not manufacture a “strength” from a negligible percentage.
Tradeoff-side signals
Saturated fat0.9 g
≈ 5% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
Sodium60 mg
≈ 3% DV. This does not cross the FDA’s 20% ‘high’ guide.
04 · Highest-impact checks
The three levers most worth resolving first
For “Bean cake,” the first-pass checks follow the evidence actually published: its named weights, the FDC 2707395 alternative, and its source-formulation identity.
- 01
Portion sensitivity around 32 g
A 25% weight move in either direction spans 24–40 g. When composition is held constant, those endpoints calculate to 99 kcal and 166 kcal.
- 02
Record choice: compare with FDC 2707395
At an equal 100 g, this record has 17.6 g more total fat than “Black bean salad.” That is a record-level contrast; it does not identify which ingredient caused the difference.
- 03
Formulation anchor: Flour, wheat, all-purpose, enriched, bleached
The source formulation has 8 input rows; Flour, wheat, all-purpose, enriched, bleached supplies 27.3% of listed input weight. Those are standardized formulation inputs, not final plated percentages.
05 · Exact-record choice
Select by literal evidence, not the shortest name
Keep this record when the exact wording “Bean cake” fits. Inspect FDC 2707395 when the exact wording “Black bean salad” is the more literal description of the food and preparation.

Exact-record context
What makes this USDA record distinct?
For FDC 2707409, the close-record rule searches the USDA “Bean, pea, legume dishes” category for shared description terms or source inputs. Any surviving pair is compared per 100 grams, so unlike source-serving sizes cannot manufacture the nutrient difference.

Plain-English read
At the fixed 100-gram basis, this record lists 320 more calories, 2.7 g more protein, and 37.3 g more carbohydrate than “Black bean salad.”
Only this record lists Flour, wheat, all-purpose, enriched, bleached; Sugars, granulated; Salt, table; Vegetable oil, NFS. Only the comparison record lists Beans, black turtle, mature seeds, canned; Corn, sweet, yellow, canned, whole kernel, drained solids; Tomatoes, red, ripe, raw, year round average; Onions, raw. Those formulation rows identify different source records; they do not prove which input caused a nutrient difference.
5 of the six displayed differences clear the documented materiality screen. It is a reading aid, not a health rating.
Formulation evidence
The listed formulations differ
The formulation rows differ, but the source data do not isolate which component caused any nutrient difference. Input weights describe the standardized formulation—not final plated proportions.
Listed only in this record: Flour, wheat, all-purpose, enriched, bleached; Sugars, granulated; Salt, table; Vegetable oil, NFS; and 2 more.
Listed only in the comparison: Beans, black turtle, mature seeds, canned; Corn, sweet, yellow, canned, whole kernel, drained solids; Tomatoes, red, ripe, raw, year round average; Onions, raw; and 1 more.
Portion evidence
The listed portion sets differ
This record’s reference amount is 32 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cake (32 g).
The comparison record’s reference amount is 116 g; a familiar listed measure is 1 cup (231 g).
Use the 100-gram row to compare FDC 2707409 with FDC 2707395 at equal mass; use their 32 g and 116 g source amounts only for portion matching.
Evidence boundary: FDC 2707409 versus FDC 2707395 is a comparison of standardized source records—not a measurement of your meal, an overall food-quality rank, or proof that one input caused a difference.

Uncertainty, made actionable
What can change this estimate?
This is a standardized USDA survey-food profile, not a measurement of every preparation. Actual nutrition can change with portion size, preparation, added fat, sauce or seasoning.
For “Bean cake,” resolve portion size first, then move through the remaining 3 published levers. Unknowns should remain visible rather than expanding every assumption at once.
- 01
portion size
When composition is held constant, nutrient totals scale directly with grams. A 20% weight correction produces the same 20% correction to the scaled totals.
- 02
preparation
Match the method named by the source—such as baked, fried, boiled, or grilled—before scaling. Preparation can change both water content and the ingredients retained in the finished food.
- 03
added fat
Match the named cooking-fat state when possible. Fat used, retained, or left behind is preparation information that a dish name alone cannot recover.
- 04
sauce or seasoning
Check whether the exact source description already includes it. If not, keep the addition separate rather than silently folding it into the base record.
How we estimated this
The arithmetic is simple; the provenance is the point
FDC 2707409 comes from FoodData Central Survey Foods (FNDDS). Its 414 kcal per 100 g becomes 132 kcal at 32 g through nutrient per portion = nutrient per 100 g × portion grams ÷ 100; this page adds no second nutrition estimate.
About the serving label: USDA describes the underlying survey portion as “Quantity not specified.” The separately listed 1 cake has the same gram weight, so the familiar label can be shown without changing the calculation.
Data cycle: 2021–2023, published October 31, 2024
FoodData Central ID: 2707409
FNDDS food code: 41210000
The scaling for FDC 2707409 can be exact while the match to “Bean cake” is wrong. That is why this profile keeps its 32 g weight, 8-row source formulation, and selection uncertainty beside the arithmetic.
