Maple syrup is a natural liquid sweetener made from the sap of maple trees, prized for its distinct caramel-like flavour. At 1 cup (250 ml), maple syrup weighs approximately 325 grams — around 30% heavier than water due to its high sugar content. Its density makes weighing by grams far more reliable than estimating by volume.

Recipes often call for maple syrup in tablespoons or millilitres rather than cups. One tablespoon of maple syrup weighs around 19 grams, so a kitchen scale is the most accurate way to measure it without the mess of sticky measuring cups.

  • Pure maple syrup
  • Maple extract

Golden syrup is thicker and sweeter than maple syrup, with a buttery flavour rather than the woody caramel of maple. Golden syrup is heavier (350 g vs 325 g per cup), so the swap is not a clean 1:1; weigh and expect a richer, stickier result from golden syrup. See our Golden Syrup converter.

Molasses is heavier (340 g vs 325 g per cup), thicker, and far more bitter than maple syrup. Only swap where a stronger, darker flavour fits the recipe. See our Molasses converter.
