Formula and Step-by-Step

fluid ounces × 42.5g/fl oz ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces
  1. Start with 11.76 fluid ounces of honey
  2. 1 fluid ounce of honey = 42.5g
  3. 11.76 × 42.5 = 499.8g
  4. Convert grams to ounces: 499.8 ÷ 28.3495 = 17.63 oz

The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.

Measuring Tip

Sticky liquids like honey are easier to measure if you lightly oil the measuring cup first. The liquid will slide out cleanly.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 17.63 oz, based on honey having a density of 340g per cup. The exact amount depends on how the ingredient is measured and the specific product.
Multiply the number of fluid ounces by 42.5 (grams per fluid ounce for honey), then divide by 28.3495 to convert grams to ounces. For 11.76 fluid ounces: 11.76 × 42.5 = 499.8g, then 499.8 ÷ 28.3495 = 17.63 oz.
Weighing honey on a kitchen scale is strongly recommended. It is thick and sticky, so it clings to measuring vessels. If you must measure by volume, lightly oil the measuring cup first so it slides out cleanly.
Temperature has a minimal effect on most cooking liquids. The density of honey changes slightly with temperature, but the difference is usually less than 1-2% between refrigerator and room temperature. This conversion assumes room temperature.
Reverse the conversion: 17.63 oz × 28.3495 = 499.8g, then 499.8g ÷ 42.5 = 11.76 fluid ounces. Or use the Ounces to Fluid Ounces converter.
