Measuring Tip

Sticky liquids like maple syrup are easier to measure if you lightly oil the measuring spoon first. The liquid will slide out cleanly.

Understanding the Units

What is a Tablespoon?

A tablespoon (tbsp) is a US customary unit of volume equal to 14.787 milliliters, 3 teaspoons, or 1/16 of a cup. It is commonly used for measuring smaller amounts of 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.

Weighing maple syrup on a kitchen scale is strongly recommended. Maple 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 maple syrup slides out cleanly.

Approximately. Sauces, syrups, and processed liquids can vary somewhat by brand and recipe. The tablespoons to grams result for maple syrup should be treated as a close estimate rather than an exact value.

Maple 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 maple syrup stays stuck to the container. A kitchen scale avoids this entirely and is the recommended way to measure sticky liquids.
