No. Mold is typically very hard to kill, so I would recommend just not eating it. The mold germs could be in your maple syrup as well as on top. BTW... why does it even have mold on it?

Can expired maple syrup hurt you?
Expired maple syrup can hurt you if there is mold growing on the bottom of it. But if you scrape off the mold then the chances of you getting sick are very slim. If it were me I wouldn't take a chance. I say this because one of my friends got appendicitis after eating old maple syrup. He got this because the crystal sugar in it gets stuck in your appendix and can cause major pain. So before you eat old maple syrup, please be safe and don't Kill yourself.

Is moldy syrup safe to eat?
I have always eaten moldy maple syrup after carfully skimming off the mold. It has never made me sick.

How do you remove mold on maple syrup?
Mold on maple syrup is a very common and easily fixed problem. Syrup will mold no matter how you store it - freezing and refrigerating will postpone it but you might find mold anyway. First, skim as much mold off the top of the syrup as you can. then, pour the syrup into a saucepan and slowly bring to *just* a boil. turn it off and let it cool without disturbing it for a few minutes, then skim the surface again. you can repeat this if there is a lot of mold floating around, or if the surface mold got mixed into the syrup. Just remember to let it cool and then heat slowly WITHOUT STIRRING. and dont let it boil, that will thicken it up and make it prone to crystallizing (you'll get maple sugar instead of maple syrup) Sterilize the container the syrup was originally in and pour the cooled syrup back in.

Is it safe to use unopened bottle of maple syrup that expired 10 months ago?
From a food safety standpoint, not much happens to syrup except some mold growth. If there is no mold and it smells like maple syrup, it is probably just fine to use. The age on it might mean that the flavor has deteriorated some and/or it may have darkened. The syrup's quality will depend on conditions where it was stored and the type of bottle used. For future purchases, see Related Links. The article explains that glass is the best long term storage container. Metal can rust and plastic breaths. It suggests that maple syrup be refrigerated, even if unopened and that larger containers be repackaged into smaller containers and frozen.
