Honey Grams to Cups
One cup of honey weighs 340 grams — heavier than water and nearly triple the weight of a cup of flour. Dense liquid sweeteners like honey are far easier to weigh than to scrape out of a measuring cup.
If you do measure honey by volume, coat the cup or spoon with a thin film of oil first and the honey slides right out. Better: put your mixing bowl on a scale and pour honey directly in until you hit the grams — zero cleanup, zero loss.

Sugars & Sweeteners compared by cup weight
Swapping one type for another changes the weight of a cup, so a recipe written in cups is not portable between them:
| Type | 1 cup | vs honey |
|---|---|---|
| Honey | 340g | — |
| Granulated Sugar | 200g | -140g |
| Brown Sugar (Packed) | 220g | -120g |
| Powdered Sugar | 120g | -220g |
| Maple Syrup | 322g | -18g |
| Molasses | 328g | -12g |
| Corn Syrup | 340g | same |
| Agave Nectar | 336g | -4g |
| Coconut Sugar | 180g | -160g |
| Turbinado Sugar | 200g | -140g |
How packing changes a cup of honey
A cup of honey weighs about 340g when filled the way this chart assumes. Pressed down it can reach 442g, and dropped in loosely it can fall to 289g. Crystal size decides how much this matters: coarse sugars trap air and vary most, while fine sugars settle consistently.
