Measuring Tip
Sticky liquids like molasses are easier to measure if you lightly oil the measuring cup first. The liquid will slide out cleanly.
Understanding the Units
What is a Quart?
US and UK quarts differ significantly. A US quart is 946 ml while a UK (imperial) quart is 1,137 ml, about 20% larger. Recipes from British cookbooks using quarts will need adjustment for US measuring equipment.
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.
Frequently Asked Questions
1 quart of molasses is 1,360.00 g. This conversion uses the ingredient's density and scales proportionally - pick an amount or try the calculator.
Weighing molasses on a kitchen scale is strongly recommended. Molasses 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 molasses slides out cleanly.
Approximately. Sauces, syrups, and processed liquids can vary somewhat by brand and recipe. The quarts to grams result for molasses should be treated as a close estimate rather than an exact value.
Molasses 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 molasses stays stuck to the container. A kitchen scale avoids this entirely and is the recommended way to measure sticky liquids.
