Weighing corn syrup on a kitchen scale is strongly recommended. Corn syrup is thick and sticky, so it clings to measuring cups and spoons, making volume measurements less reliable than for thinner liquids. If you must measure by volume, lightly oil the cup first so the corn syrup slides out cleanly.
Approximately. Sauces, syrups, and processed liquids can vary somewhat by brand and recipe. The pints to pounds result for corn syrup should be treated as a close estimate rather than an exact value.
Corn syrup is dense and sticky, so it clings to measuring cups and does not pour cleanly. Volume measurements can easily be off by 5-10% depending on how much corn syrup stays stuck to the container. A kitchen scale avoids this entirely and is the recommended way to measure sticky liquids.
