How Much Is 5 Milliliters of Maple Syrup in Grams?
5 milliliters of maple syrup equals 6.59 g. Maple syrup has a density of 312g per cup (1.32g per milliliter), which means it's relatively light compared to other common cooking ingredients. For comparison, 5 milliliters of honey would be 7.19 g.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 5 milliliters of maple syrup
- 1 milliliter of maple syrup = 1.32g
- 5 × 1.32 = 6.59g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Measuring Tip
Sticky liquids like maple syrup are easier to measure if you lightly oil the measuring cup first. The liquid will slide out cleanly.

Understanding the Units
What is a Milliliter?
Milliliters measure volume and are used worldwide for cooking and baking. For water at room temperature, 1 ml weighs approximately 1 gram, but this relationship does not hold for other ingredients.
What is a Gram?
Weighing ingredients in grams eliminates the variability of volume measurements. A cup of flour can weigh anywhere from 120g to 160g depending on how it was scooped, but 120g of flour is always 120g of flour.
