Parisian essence is a dark, caramel-based browning and flavouring liquid, popular in Australia and New Zealand for deepening the colour and adding a malty, caramel note to fruit cakes, Christmas puddings, and gravies. One metric cup (250 ml) weighs about 230 grams or 8.11 ounces, though most recipes use it by the teaspoon, where 1 tsp is around 4.6 grams.
Recipes list parisian essence in teaspoons or millilitres while bottles vary in size. This page converts between teaspoons, millilitres, grams, and cups so you can hit the right amount with whatever measure you have.

Related Parisian Essence Ingredients
Vanilla essence is another small-volume flavouring liquid at a near-identical weight (230 g per cup). It flavours rather than colours, so the two are used for different jobs rather than as swaps. See our Vanilla Essence converter.
Molasses brings the dark colour and caramel depth of parisian essence in a much heavier, thicker form (340 g vs 230 g per cup). Use a spoonful to deepen a fruit cake when essence is unavailable. See our Molasses converter.
