Sugar Reduction Calculator accuracy and testing

This page documents how Calwarden builds trust for this calculator: source notes, regression-style default tests, limitations, assumptions, unit handling, rounding, and visible change history.

Formula source

  • New sugar = original sugar x (1 - reduction percent / 100). Per-serving values divide by servings.

Test cases

Default input regression check

Generated from the checked-in default inputs and calculate function.

Inputs

  • Original Sugar: 200 g
  • Reduction: 25%
  • Servings: 10

Expected outputs

  • New Sugar Amount: 150 g
  • Sugar Removed: 50 g
  • Removed per Serving: 5 g
  • New Sugar per Serving: 15 g

Known limitations

  • This page documents the checked-in calculator logic and does not certify results for every real-world edge case.
  • Use the result as a planning estimate unless the calculator page states a stricter purpose.

Assumptions

  • All prices, rates, package sizes, and recipe values are user-entered unless clearly labeled as a general planning default.
  • Calculations run locally in your browser and do not store food, nutrition, household, or budget details.
  • This is planning math, not nutrition, medical, allergen, or food-safety advice.

  • Original Sugar accepts values in g.
  • Reduction accepts values in %.
  • Servings accepts numeric values.
  • New Sugar Amount is displayed in g.
  • Sugar Removed is displayed in g.
  • Removed per Serving is displayed in g.
