Honey
Gram to US Cup
Understanding Honey Conversions
The Math Behind This Conversion
To convert 1 gram of honey to us cup, we divide by the density (1.42 g/ml). First, 1g ÷ 1.42 g/ml = 0.7ml. Then, dividing by the us cup volume (236.59ml): 0.7ml ÷ 236.59ml = 0 us cup.
Measurement Tip
Measure honey in a liquid measuring cup (the kind with a spout) placed on a flat surface. Read the measurement at eye level, looking at the bottom of the meniscus (the curved surface of the liquid). For sticky liquids like honey, lightly coat the measuring cup with oil first to help it slide out easily.
About Our Data
The density value of 1.42 g/ml for honey is from the USDA FoodData Central database (ID: 169640). This measurement was taken with honey poured into the measuring cup.

Measure honey in a liquid measuring cup placed on a flat surface. Read the measurement at eye level at the bottom of the meniscus.
Honey has a density of 1.42 g/ml, meaning each milliliter weighs 1.42 grams. Different ingredients have different densities—for example, flour is lighter than sugar—which is why each needs its own conversion factor.
