Honey: Cups to Grams
Honey has a density of 1.42 g/mL, so converting between volume (cups, tablespoons) and weight (grams, ounces) needs this specific figure rather than a generic one. One US cup of honey weighs about 335.9552958 g.

How to measure it accurately
Honey is far denser than water — a cup weighs about a third more than a cup of water. Oil the measuring cup first and it will pour out cleanly.

Frequently asked questions
How many grams in a cup of honey?

How many grams in a teaspoon of honey?
1 teaspoon of honey weighs about 6.999068663 grams.
Why does honey have a different gram weight than other ingredients?
Because grams measure mass and cups measure volume, the conversion depends on density. Honey has a density of 1.42 g/mL, so it is heavier than the same volume of water.
Does how I measure honey matter?
Honey is far denser than water — a cup weighs about a third more than a cup of water. Oil the measuring cup first and it will pour out cleanly.
