Jack in the Box Desserts: Every Item, Calorie, Allergen & Price (2026)

Besides its shakes, Jack in the Box’s 2026 nutrition PDF lists 3 desserts: New York Style Cheesecake, Mini Churros and Chocolate Overload Cake. They run from 300 to 350 calories. The label shows the dessert you pick below. Limited-time sweets such as the Forbidden D'oh!nut Holes are not in the PDFs, so we cover them separately and show no made-up numbers. The shakes have their own milkshake guide.

Allergens and diet

Jack in the Box dessert allergens

“Contains” here is the union of the brand’s nutrition PDF and its Allergens Reference Guide, so if either document lists an allergen, it is shown. A blank means neither document lists it, which is not the same as a promise that it is absent.

Allergens the brand lists for each Jack in the Box dessert
DessertMilkEggWheatSoyShared equipment note
New York Style CheesecakeContains MilkContains EggContains WheatContains SoyManufactured on shared equipment with Peanuts & Tree Nuts
Mini ChurrosContains MilkContains EggContains WheatContains SoyNone in its ingredient statement
Chocolate Overload CakeContains MilkContains EggContains WheatContains SoyNone in its ingredient statement

What this means

  • Every dessert lists milk, egg, wheat and soy, so none of them is an option if you avoid any of those.
  • New York Style Cheesecake also carries the brand’s shared-equipment note about peanuts and tree nuts, so it is not a safe pick for those allergies either.
  • The brand’s documents make no gluten-free, dairy-free or vegan claim for any of these desserts.

The brand’s own cross-contact notice

“Like most restaurants, Jack in the Box restaurants prepare and serve products that contain Soy, Egg, Fish, Milk, Wheat, and Sesame. While a particular ingredient statement may not list one of these allergens, products may be prepared with equipment that is shared with products containing one or more of these allergens. If you have a food allergy, please consult with your physician before deciding which Jack in the Box products are right for you, and check the allergen information frequently as the menu and ingredients may change.”

Quoted from the Allergens Reference Guide. Ask the restaurant about your allergy before you order.

Not in the 2026 PDFs

Other sweets you may see at Jack in the Box

Some sweets appear on a restaurant’s ordering page or in the news but are not in the brand’s nutrition or allergen PDFs. We list what a source says and show no calories, nutrition or allergens for them, because we cannot verify any.

Limited time (Simpsons Treehouse of Horror menu)

Forbidden D'oh!nut Holes

September 10, 2026

Warm donut holes dusted with cinnamon sugar, topped with pink frosting and finished with rainbow sprinkles. The brand's press release says the Treehouse of Horror menu runs for a limited time from September 10, 2026, while supplies last, and gives no end date. Brand Eating reported four to an order. The item is not in the brand's 2026 nutrition or allergen PDFs, so we show no calories, nutrition or allergens for it. Sites that publish figures for it disagree with each other.

Jack's Sugar Cookie

Seen October 12, 2026

A third-party menu site reported a sugar cookie, plus 5-for-$5 and 12-for-$12 bundles, on the online ordering page of one Los Angeles restaurant on October 12, 2026. We could not confirm it from the brand's PDFs or a brand announcement, and it may not be sold everywhere. We show no nutrition or allergens for it. Treat it as a lead to check in the Jack app, not as a menu fact.

Checking the numbers

When two Jack in the Box sources disagree

Every figure on this page comes from the brand’s 2026 nutrition PDF. We also compared it with a restaurant ordering page. 1 of 3 calorie counts differ.

Calories in the 2026 nutrition PDF compared with a restaurant ordering page
Dessert2026 PDFOrdering pageResult
Chocolate Overload Cake300320Differs by 20 calories
Mini Churros350350Match
New York Style Cheesecake310310Match

Which number we use

We show the PDF figure everywhere, because it is the brand’s published national nutrition document and we can open it and check it. A restaurant ordering page is one location’s view of the menu, and we cannot tell from outside why two brand sources differ. If your restaurant shows a different number, trust what it shows you for that restaurant.

How sure are we of the comparison?

The page appeared in a search result with these figures, but it did not load when we tried to open it directly, so treat the comparison as unconfirmed. It lists a restaurant, not the national PDF.

Price

How much do Jack in the Box desserts cost?

Price varies by location. Restaurants set their own prices and the brand publishes no national price for its desserts, so we show none for the items in the picker.

Where to check the price

  1. The Jack in the Box app or online ordering page for the restaurant you plan to visit.
  2. The menu board at the drive-thru or counter.
  3. A phone call to the restaurant.

Prices people have reported

Single-restaurant reports, listed so you can see the kind of number to expect. They are estimates, not quotes.

We have no dated report we can verify for the cheesecake, the Mini Churros or the Chocolate Overload Cake, so those say “Price varies by location” and nothing more.

Ordering

Fitting a dessert into your day

Plain arithmetic from the label, not nutrition advice. Your own needs may be different.

If you want fewer calories or less sugar

  • Fewest calories: Chocolate Overload Cake at 300, about 15% of a 2,000-calorie day.
  • Least sugar: Mini Churros at 12 g, about 3 teaspoons. That is not the same dessert as the lowest-calorie one, so the two goals pull in different directions.
  • Share it: half of the Mini Churros is about 175 calories. That is a rough figure for an even split, not a published value.

Good to know before you order

  • Sugar is total sugars. About 4 g is a teaspoon. The American Heart Association’s guidance is about added sugars, which the brand does not break out, so the two cannot be compared directly.
  • Each dessert is one portion. The brand lists 3 desserts in a single portion each, with no size to choose.
  • Add it to a meal. Use the meal calculator to add a dessert to a burger and fries and see the total.

Shakes

Looking for the shakes?

The brand files its shakes in the same “Shakes & Desserts” section as these desserts, but they are a different decision, so they have their own page.

There are 5 shake flavors in 9 sizes, from 580 to 990 calories. Even the lightest shake has about 66% more calories than the heaviest dessert above. Open the guide for every flavor and size with its own label, sugar and allergens.

FAQ

Jack in the Box dessert questions

What desserts does Jack in the Box have?

The brand's 2026 nutrition PDF lists 3 desserts besides shakes: New York Style Cheesecake, Mini Churros, and Chocolate Overload Cake. Each is listed in one portion. Limited-time sweets, such as Forbidden D'oh!nut Holes, come and go and are not in the PDF. The shakes have their own page.

How many calories are in a Jack in the Box cheesecake?

The New York Style Cheesecake is 310 calories per the brand's 2026 nutrition PDF, with 22 g of total sugars (about 6 teaspoons) and 7 g of protein. That is about 16% of a 2,000-calorie day. It lists milk, egg, wheat, and soy, and its ingredient statement adds: "Manufactured on shared equipment with Peanuts & Tree Nuts".

How many calories are in Jack in the Box Mini Churros?

350 calories for the 5 pc. order, with 12 g of total sugars (about 3 teaspoons) and 18 g of fat. That is the least sugar of the 3 desserts, but it is #3 of 3 for calories (1 is lowest).

How many calories are in the Jack in the Box Chocolate Overload Cake?

300 calories in the brand's 2026 nutrition PDF, with 34 g of total sugars (about 9 teaspoons), the most sugar of the 3 desserts. A restaurant ordering page shown in search results listed 320 calories. We could not open that page ourselves, so we show the PDF figure and flag the difference.

Which Jack in the Box dessert has the fewest calories?

Chocolate Overload Cake, at 300 calories. The heaviest is Mini Churros at 350, so the whole range is only 50 calories. The gap in sugar is bigger: from 12 g (Mini Churros) to 34 g (Chocolate Overload Cake).

Is a Jack in the Box dessert lighter than a shake?

Yes, going by the brand's PDF. The heaviest dessert is 350 calories and the lightest shake, Vanilla Shake, 16 oz, is 580. Shakes run up to 990 calories across 9 sizes. See the milkshake page for each one.

How much do Jack in the Box desserts cost?

Price varies by location. Restaurants set their own prices and the brand publishes no national price for its desserts, so we found no reliable figure for the cheesecake, churros or cake and do not show one. A dated report we could name put the limited-time Forbidden D'oh!nut Holes at about $2.49 in one Los Angeles restaurant in September 2026, which is one restaurant, not a menu price. Check the Jack app or ask the restaurant you plan to visit.

What allergens are in Jack in the Box desserts?

All 3 desserts list milk, egg, wheat, and soy, in both the nutrition PDF and the Allergens Reference Guide. New York Style Cheesecake also carries the ingredient-statement note about shared equipment with peanuts and tree nuts. The brand also says its restaurants may share equipment between products, so anyone with an allergy should ask the restaurant.

Does Jack in the Box say its desserts are gluten-free, dairy-free or vegan?

No. The brand's documents make none of those claims for these desserts, so we cannot call any of them that. They list milk, egg, wheat, and soy, so each is a poor fit for anyone avoiding those.

What are Jack in the Box Mini Churros made of?

The brand's ingredient statement describes a dough, a filling that includes cream cheese, and a cinnamon sugar topping, and says they are cooked in a canola blend frying oil. It starts with dough. The full statement is shown word for word in the item guide above.

Is the Forbidden D'oh!nut Holes dessert still on the Jack in the Box menu?

We cannot tell, because this site cannot see a live menu. The brand's press release says the Simpsons Treehouse of Horror menu started on September 10, 2026 for a limited time, while supplies last, and gives no end date. It is not in the 2026 nutrition or allergen PDFs, so we show no nutrition for it. Check the Jack app.

Does Jack in the Box have sundaes or ice cream cups?

None is listed in the brand's 2026 nutrition PDF. Its Shakes & Desserts section there holds 5 shake flavors and the 3 desserts on this page, and nothing else. A restaurant can sell items the PDF does not list, so check the Jack app or ask.

Why might a Jack in the Box dessert calorie count look different elsewhere?

Our figures are copied from the brand's 2026 nutrition PDF (reviewed November 10, 2026). Another source may differ, and we cannot tell from outside why. One example is the cake above. When two sources disagree, the brand's own current document is the one to trust, and your restaurant's own page is the one to trust for that restaurant.

How we built this

Sources and method

Reviewed November 10, 2026. Every number on this page is read from our data files, which are copied from the documents below, and not typed by hand.

Reference reading

Method and limits

  • Calories, fat, sodium, carbohydrate, sugars and protein are the brand’s own published amounts for each of the 3 desserts. We do not adjust them.
  • “% of a day” divides calories by 2,000. Teaspoons divide grams of sugar by 4 and round. % Daily Value on the label uses the U.S. FDA reference amounts and is calculated by this site, because the brand prints amounts only.
  • Allergens are the union of the nutrition PDF and the Allergens Reference Guide, which is the cautious reading. If a dessert is in only one of them, the page says so.
  • Ingredient statements are the brand’s own words. The PDF does not map them to menu items, so matching a statement to a dessert is our judgment, stated where it is used.
  • Sweets that are not in the PDFs come from a brand press release or press and menu-site reports linked in their cards. They carry no nutrition here. A price is shown only where a dated report names where it was seen.
  • The comparison with a restaurant ordering page is flagged as unconfirmed, because we could not open that page ourselves.
  • The dessert pictures are original illustrations drawn for this site, not photographs of the product.
