Most grocery stores, including Kroger, Publix, and Walmart, sell corn syrup. Each store categorizes it differently, so there are a few different aisles where it may be located. Generally, stores sell corn syrup in the baking or cereal aisles. For information on where to find corn syrup in grocery stores, see below.

Where Is Corn Syrup in Grocery Stores?

Corn syrup can be found amid the baking ingredients at some grocery stores, as many candy, dessert, jelly, and jam recipes call for it. Other stores group it with the hot cereals and maple syrup. We contacted Kroger, Publix, and Walmart to find out exactly where they stock corn syrup in their stores.

Whether visiting one of these three chains or another grocery store, it’s a good idea to contact your local store for specifics, as each store’s layout may vary. You can also check the store’s mobile app — many grocers now have mobile apps which allow you to search for an item and see whether it is in stock and in which aisle it is located.

The information each store’s customer service shared with us is detailed below, along with links to each retailer’s store locator and mobile app:
