For your syrup I suggest using Tupperware Micro Pitcher Set. It works really well, heats evenly and prevents splatters in the microwave. I love having a measuring cup and warmer all in one!

Micro Pitcher Set



Timesaving Solution To Help You Prepare Meals with Ease!

This two-piece set is a fast, mess-free solution for reheating gravies and sauces quickly and neatly in the microwave. It's sensational for melting butter or chocolate, too. Use the pitchers separately or invert the small 1-cup (250 mL) pitcher over the large 2-cup (500 mL) pitcher and you've got a self-venting cover that allows steam to escape while preventing messy microwave splatters. The pitchers have U.S. standard and metric measurements and nest together for more compact storage.  Rhubarb.
