Calories in Grapes: Per Cup, Per Grape and Raisins

Quick answer: one cup of grapes (about 151 g) has around 104 calories. A single grape is about 3 calories, so 10 grapes are roughly 30–35 kcal.

Grape calories by portion

1 grape~3
10 grapes~30–35

Grape products

ProductApprox. calories

Raisins, small box (~28 g)~85–95
Grape juice, 1 cup~150
Frozen grapes, 1 cup~104

Raisins are grapes with the water removed: the same sugar in a much smaller volume, so they're easy to overeat.

Are grapes good for weight loss?

Grapes are a sweet, refreshing snack under 110 kcal per cup. Because they're easy to eat by the handful, portion them into a bowl. Frozen grapes are a popular low-calorie dessert. For more ideas see low-calorie snacks and low-calorie desserts.

How to eat grapes without overdoing it

Grapes are easy to keep eating straight from the bag, so a few habits help:

  1. Wash and portion a cup into a bowl instead of eating from the bunch.
  2. Freeze them. Frozen grapes take longer to eat and feel like a sorbet bite. A cup is still only about 104 kcal.
  3. Pair with protein: grapes with a stick of string cheese or a small handful of almonds make a balanced 200 kcal snack.
  4. Add to salads: halved grapes in a chicken salad add sweetness for very few calories.

Portion without a scale

A cup of grapes is roughly what fits in two cupped hands, or about 30–35 medium grapes. If you count, 10 grapes is a light snack and 30 a full serving.

Who should be careful

If you're tracking blood sugar, pair grapes with protein or fat and check with your care team about portions.
