Maple syrup is an economically important product to New England and several other northern states in the USA as well as in Canada. This study has produced the first set of data of density, viscosity and color of the maple syrup. Both rheological and colorimetry methods are precise, sensitive, and reliable objective means for product quality control. In addition, modification of syrup by addition of cellulose gum can be sensitively detected.
