Sources & how they compare
| Source | Reported value | Comparable source-cup value | Type | Measurement method | Adopted here | Checked |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| USDA FoodData Central — Syrups, maple (FDC 169661)FDC ID: 169661 | 315 g/1 source cup (exact volume unknown) | 315g | Direct | liquid household cup | Adopted | 2026-08-05 |
| King Arthur Baking — Ingredient Weight Chart | 156 g/1/2 source cup (exact volume unknown) | 312g | Derived | poured liquid | 2026-08-05 |
A comparable source-cup value only scales a half-cup or tablespoon serving to one source cup. When a source does not state the cup's exact volume, we do not present it as a fixed-milliliter normalization.
Measurement notes
- This record is for pure maple syrup, not maple-flavored pancake syrup or maple cream.
- Measure at room temperature and let the syrup settle before reading the liquid line.
- Because syrup clings to containers, weighing directly into the mixing bowl avoids transfer loss.
Common mistakes
- Not measuring maple syrup the recommended way — poured into a liquid measuring cup — is one of the most common sources of error.
- Assuming 1 cup of maple syrup equals 240g like water — it is actually 315g per US cup.
- Measuring a thick, sticky liquid by volume instead of weighing it on a scale.

Can I convert cups of maple syrup back to grams?
Yes, use the Cups to Grams tool with maple syrup selected to convert any cup amount back into grams.
Why does maple syrup convert differently from other ingredients?
Grams measure weight and cups measure volume, so the conversion depends on how dense maple syrup is. A cup of maple syrup weighs 315g, while a denser or lighter ingredient weighs a different amount per cup.
