Cups of Honey to Grams Converter
This page converts cups of honey into grams, the way serious bakers weigh ingredients. One US cup of honey is about 340 g, so the conversion is a multiplication by 340. Because honey is measured by volume in many American recipes but by weight in most European and professional ones, a quick, reliable conversion saves failed bakes.
How to convert Cups of honey to grams
Multiply the number of cups by 340. For example 0.75 cups of honey is 0.75 × 340 = 255 g. To go the other way, divide grams by 340: 255 g ÷ 340 = 0.75 cups.

How much does a cup really weigh?
Density is the reason there is no single answer: a cup is a measure of space, not weight, so its weight depends on the ingredient. Honey is much denser than water: a cup weighs about 336 to 340 g, and a tablespoon about 21 g. The figure of 340 g per cup used here is a common baking reference value; your own flour, humidity and scooping habit can move it a few percent either way.
Measure by spooning the ingredient lightly into the cup and leveling the top with a knife; never press it down unless the recipe says "packed". Scooping straight from the bag compacts dry ingredients and can add 20% or more. A digital kitchen scale removes the guesswork entirely, and it also means fewer dishes to wash.
Cups of honey to grams FAQ
How many grams are in one cup of honey?
One US cup of honey weighs about 340 g. That is a typical reference value, not an exact constant, because the weight changes with how the ingredient is packed.
What is the quickest way to convert cups of honey and grams in my head?
Round the factor to about 340 g per cup: 0.75 cups is then about 255 g against an exact 255 g.
Why do recipes disagree about the weight of a cup of honey?
Brands, sifting and scooping style change how much fits in the cup. Honey is much denser than water: a cup weighs about 336 to 340 g, and a tablespoon about 21 g.
Should I weigh honey instead of using cups?
Yes, if you can. Weight is repeatable, so a recipe that calls for 680 g of honey will give the same result every time, while two cups can differ by 10 to 20% from one person to the next.
