How many teaspoons is 6 grams of honey?
Answer
One US teaspoon (4.93 ml) of honey weighs 7.06 grams, from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 169640 “Honey”, portion “1 cup” = 339 grams, and 1 US cup = 48 US teaspoons. In kitchen measures that is just under 7/8 teaspoon.
6 grams of honey equals 0.85 US teaspoons; the way back, from teaspoons to grams, is the Teaspoons to Grams converter.
The same 6 grams of honey is 0.0177 US cups or 0.28 US tablespoons.
This is the level US teaspoon of 4.93 ml. The metric teaspoon of 5 ml is 1.4 % larger, so the same weight fills 0.84 teaspoons of that size.
How 6 grams of honey was converted to teaspoons
A teaspoon is a volume, so its weight depends on the ingredient. One US teaspoon of honey weighs 7.06 grams (seven point zero six), so divide 6 by 7.0625.
6 g ÷ 7.0625 g
≈0.85 teaspoons
(zero point eight five teaspoons)
The weight of the teaspoon comes from USDA FoodData Central, SR Legacy entry 169640 “Honey”, portion “1 cup” = 339 grams, and 1 US cup = 48 US teaspoons. Scooped ingredients vary with how they are filled — spooned in lightly, a teaspoon 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 grams in a teaspoon
This page starts from grams and answers in teaspoons. The opposite question — how many grams a recipe’s teaspoons weigh, fractions like 1/2 and 2 1/2 included — is what the teaspoons to grams converter is for. Both read the same USDA weights, so their numbers agree: one US teaspoon of honey is 7.06 grams there and here.
