Maple syrups on this page include pure maple syrup made by boiling down maple sap, pancake syrups made mainly from corn syrup with maple flavouring, and maple sugar. Pure maple syrup is more expensive but has a deeper flavour and a single ingredient, while pancake syrup is cheaper and thicker. The first decision is whether you want pure maple syrup, because the two taste quite different and are labelled differently.
Grade and colour are the next questions. Pure maple syrup is graded by colour and taste, from golden with a delicate taste to very dark with a strong taste. Lighter syrups suit pancakes and drizzling, while darker syrups have more maple flavour for baking, glazes and cooking.
Storage matters once opened. Pure maple syrup should be refrigerated after opening to stop mould growing, while many pancake syrups contain preservatives and can stay in the cupboard. Glass bottles and tins are common for pure syrup, while plastic jugs are common for larger sizes.
Before buying, check whether the syrup is pure maple or pancake syrup, the grade, the size and the container. Maple sugar is a granulated form that can replace sugar in baking and coffee. Warm syrup gently before serving for an easier pour. Real maple syrup is also a natural choice for baking, sweetening coffee and tea, and glazing vegetables, salmon or ham.
