A piece of milk chocolate weighing about 5 grams would be 27 calories, and a 5 gram piece of dark chocolate is 25 calories. So, eating the dark chocolate really does not save one any calories.

It will vary slightly depending on the type of chocolate and the exact amount, but generally speaking, half an ounce of plain chocolate (about the size of a miniature candy bar) will have about 100 calories. Most full-size candy bars average 200-250 calories. High-quality dark chocolate will have fewer calories because it has a lower fat and sugar content.
