How to Measure Honey Correctly
Honey is denser than water (1.42 g/ml vs 1.0 g/ml), so 1 cup of honey weighs significantly more than 1 cup of water.
To measure honey accurately by volume, lightly coat the measuring cup with oil first - the honey will slide right out.
When substituting honey for sugar in baking, reduce other liquids by 1/4 cup per cup of honey and lower oven temperature by 25°F.
118g of honey is about NaN cups - that's NaN full cups plus NaN of another.
Why Accurate Honey Measurement Matters in Baking
A 10g error when measuring honey can change your result by 0.03 cups. That's the difference between a perfectly balanced recipe and one that turns out too dry or too wet.
Adding just 10 extra grams of honey (the weight of about one tablespoon) absorbs extra moisture and can turn a tender result into a dense, dry one. Conversely, using 10g less means your structure may not hold.

Frequently Asked Questions - Honey Conversions
Using the Spoon & Level method (recommended), 118g of Honey equals ⅓ cups. With the Dip & Sweep method, it's ⅓ cups, and when sifted it measures ⅜ cups. We recommend weighing ingredients for best results, but if you're using measuring cups, the Spoon & Level method is the most accurate.
Yes, significantly. The same 118g of Honey can measure anywhere from ⅓ cups (dip & sweep) to ⅜ cups (sifted) - that's a 31% difference. This happens because dip & sweep compresses the ingredient, fitting more into each cup, while sifting aerates it. For consistent baking results, always use the same method your recipe specifies.
Use the Spoon & Level method: fluff the Honey in its container first, then lightly spoon it into your measuring cup until slightly overflowing. Level off the top with the flat edge of a knife. Never scoop directly from the bag - this compresses the ingredient and you'll end up with up to 20% more than intended.
It depends on how you measure. Using the Spoon & Level method, 1 cup of Honey weighs approximately 336g. With Dip & Sweep, it's heavier at about 396g per cup. Sifted Honey is lighter - about 286g per cup. This is why professional bakers prefer weighing ingredients in grams.
Not exactly. 0 cups of Honey weighs approximately 0g. 118g equals about ⅓ cups - roughly 118g more than 0 full cups. For precision in baking, it's worth measuring the exact amount rather than rounding to the nearest cup.
Slightly. Cold Honey is slightly denser than room temperature Honey, but the difference is small enough that most recipes don't account for it. For the most consistent results, use Honey at the temperature specified in your recipe. One cup of Honey weighs approximately 336g regardless of temperature.
Yes, significantly. One cup of honey weighs about 337g, while one cup of granulated sugar weighs about 200g. Honey is denser because it's a liquid with no air pockets. When substituting honey for sugar by volume, you're adding much more sweetener by weight.
118g of Honey contains approximately 359 calories, 97.2g carbohydrates, 0.4g protein, and 0g fat. Per cup (spoon & level), that's about 1021 calories. Values based on USDA nutritional data.
Use about 75% of the sugar weight in honey. For 118g of sugar, use about 89g of honey. Reduce other liquids by 25% and lower oven temperature by 25°F. Honey also browns faster, so watch your baked goods carefully.
