How many grams is 3 cups of honey?
Answer
One US cup (236.6 ml) of honey weighs 339 grams, from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 169640 “Honey”, portion “1 cup” = 339 grams.
3 cups of honey equals 1,017 grams; the way back, from grams to cups, is the Grams to Cups converter.
This is the US customary cup of 236.6 ml. A recipe written for the metric cup of 250 ml (Australia, New Zealand, Canada) means 5.7 % more: 1,075 grams.
How 3 cups of honey was converted to grams
One US cup of honey weighs 339 grams (three hundred thirty-nine), so multiply 3 by 339.
3 × 339 g
=1,017 grams
(one thousand seventeen grams)
The weight of the cup comes from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 169640 “Honey”, portion “1 cup” = 339 grams. Scooped ingredients vary with how they are filled — spooned in lightly, a cup weighs less; packed down, more — so for baking a kitchen scale is the exact tool and this figure the standard reference.

The other way round: how many cups a weight fills
This page starts from cups and answers in grams. The opposite question — how many cups a weight from a recipe fills — is what the grams to cups converter is for. Both read the same USDA weights, so their numbers agree: 100 grams of honey is 0.29 cups there.
