Metric cups and other cup sizes
The figures above use the US customary cup of 236.6 ml. A metric cup is 250 ml, so a metric cup of maple syrup weighs about 335 grams. UK recipes that say "cup" usually mean a 250 ml metric cup, which is why weighing in grams is more reliable than measuring by volume.
Measuring maple syrup accurately
Pour maple syrup into a liquid measuring cup placed on a flat surface, viewing the fill line at eye height. Syrup leaves a thick coating inside the cup, meaning volume pours often fall short of the target. Weighing maple syrup directly into your batter prevents waste and ensures accuracy.
