This is based on 1 cup of honey = 340 g, so 1/4 cup of honey is 1/4 × 340 ≈ 85 g.

How to measure 1/4 cup of honey

By weight (most accurate): set your bowl on a kitchen scale, press tare, and add 85 g of honey.

By volume: Use a 1/4-cup measure, or 4 level tablespoons.

Honey is dense, so a cup weighs much more than a cup of water. Lightly oil the measuring cup and it will slide right out.

Why honey weighs what it does

Honey is about 43% heavier than the same volume of water, which weighs about 237 g per cup. That is why you can't convert cups to grams without knowing the ingredient.
