How Much Is 2 Pints of Corn Syrup in Grams?
2 pints of corn syrup weighs 1,312.00 g. This is based on corn syrup having a density of 328g per cup. Because pints measure volume and grams measure weight, the result depends on the ingredient, and a different ingredient would give a different result for the same 2 pints.
Formula and Step-by-Step
- Start with 2 pints of corn syrup
- 1 pint of corn syrup = 656g
- 2 × 656 = 1,312g
The same formula works for any amount. Multiply (or divide) by the density, then convert units as needed.
Mental Math Shortcut
Quick check: 2 pints is just double the single-pint weight. 1 pint = 656g, so 2 = 1,312g.
Measuring Tip
Sticky liquids like corn 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 Pint?
US and UK pints are very different sizes. A US pint is 473 ml while a UK (imperial) pint is 568 ml, making the UK pint about 20% larger. A "pint of milk" in a British recipe is significantly more than in an American recipe.
What is a Gram?
Grams are the preferred unit in professional kitchens and bakeries because they allow exact recipe scaling. To double a recipe, simply double the gram values. No need to worry about how tightly an ingredient is packed into a cup.
