1 cup of honey = 340 grams (about 21 g per tablespoon). That is the King Arthur Baking — Ingredient Weight Chart weight — the standard US baking reference. Enter cups below for grams, or use the grams-to-cups table further down the page to go the other way.
Cups to Grams — Honey
Cooking Converter · weights from the King Arthur Baking ingredient chart (approximate — see the note below the converter)
1 cups of honey = 340 g
1 cups × 340 g per cup = 340 g
The chart lists honey at 21 g per tablespoon; a cup is 16 tablespoons, which works out to the 340 g (12 oz) a cup of honey weighs. Grease the cup first and it pours out cleanly. Every row below is the same calculation — cups × 340 g per cup — so the table and the converter can never disagree.
| Cups | Grams |
|---|---|
| ¼ cup | 85 g |
| ⅓ cup | 113 g |
| ½ cup | 170 g |
| ⅔ cup | 227 g |
| ¾ cup | 255 g |
| 1 cup | 340 g |
| 1½ cups | 510 g |
| 2 cups | 680 g |
| 3 cups | 1020 g |
| 4 cups | 1360 g |
Going the other way — a metric recipe weighed out, an American one to fill — divide grams by 340 g per cup:
| Grams | Cups |
|---|---|
| 50 g | 0.15 cups |
| 100 g | 0.29 cups |
| 125 g | 0.37 cups |
| 150 g | 0.44 cups |
| 200 g | 0.59 cups |
| 250 g | 0.74 cups |
| 300 g | 0.88 cups |
| 400 g | 1.18 cups |
| 500 g | 1.47 cups |
Cup weights come from the King Arthur Baking — Ingredient Weight Chart, the standard reference US bakers use. A cup is a volume, so the weight you actually get depends on how you fill it — scooping flour straight from the bag packs in more than spooning it in and levelling it off, and sifted flour weighs less still. Treat these figures as the chart standard, and weigh with a scale when a recipe is fussy.
If your recipe stays in volumes, these converters handle the metric side — a US cup is about 237 ml, a tablespoon about 15 ml:
1 cup of honey weighs 340 grams on the King Arthur Baking Ingredient Weight Chart. Cup weights are approximate — how you fill the cup (scooped, spooned, sifted, packed) moves the real weight, which is why weighing is more reliable than measuring by volume.
½ cup of honey weighs 170 grams — exactly half the 340 g chart weight for a full cup.
250 grams of honey is about 0.74 cups (250 g ÷ 340 g per cup). Use the converter above for any other amount.
Because a cup measures volume, not weight, every chart has to assume a filling method. The chart lists honey at 21 g per tablespoon; a cup is 16 tablespoons, which works out to the 340 g (12 oz) a cup of honey weighs. Grease the cup first and it pours out cleanly. This page uses the King Arthur Baking chart throughout, so its tables and converter always agree with each other.
