Formula and Step-by-Step

tablespoons × 21.25g/tbsp ÷ 28.3495g/oz = ounces
  1. Start with 16.01 tablespoons of honey
  2. 1 tablespoon of honey = 21.25g
  3. 16.01 × 21.25 = 340.21g
  4. Convert grams to ounces: 340.21 ÷ 28.3495 = 12.00 oz

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

Measuring Tip

Liquid densities vary: oils weigh less per cup than water, while syrups and honey weigh more. This is why ingredient-specific conversions matter even for liquids.

Understanding the Units

What is a Tablespoon?

Tablespoon sizes differ by country. A US tablespoon is 14.787 ml, close to the 15 ml metric standard used in most countries. An Australian tablespoon is 20 ml, about 35% larger than US. An imperial tablespoon is 17.758 ml. If your recipe comes from Australia, the larger tablespoon size can make a real difference.

What is an Ounce?

An ounce (oz) is a US customary unit of weight equal to 28.3495 grams or 1/16 of a pound. In cooking, "ounces" refers to weight (avoirdupois ounces), not fluid ounces which measure volume.

Frequently Asked Questions

About 12.00 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 tablespoons by 21.25 (grams per tablespoon for honey), then divide by 28.3495 to convert grams to ounces. For 16.01 tablespoons: 16.01 × 21.25 = 340.21g, then 340.21 ÷ 28.3495 = 12.00 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 spoon 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: 12.00 oz × 28.3495 = 340.21g, then 340.21g ÷ 21.25 = 16.01 tablespoons. Or use the Ounces to Tablespoons converter.
