I agree that it's a different sense, an abbreviation of メープルシロップ.
I came across the word in translating the following survey response:
{9}{10}・キャラメル・メープル{/10}{/9}
The context was that the survey respondent was asked to name some flavors or foods that a particular type of coffee drink would go well with.
.
By itself, that's not much evidence. But, in addition to the Wikipedia page, you can find things like
- メープルのレシピ
- メープルバターソース
- かぼちゃのメープル煮
- メープル☆バナナケーキ
- 【薄力粉】クッキー【メープル】
- メープルくるみパン
- ミルクもちのメープルきなこがけ
etc.
The Federation of Quebec Maple Syrup Producers is referred to as ケベック・メープル製品生産者協会 on the following webpage
http://www.pure-maple.com/
and there is a book called 
『有元葉子 メープルクッキング』
according to the Wikipedia article メープルシロップ.

i'm not convinced that the wikipedia page is suggesting that all the things in that list are known simply as メープル.  if this really does mean 'maple syrup' by itself, it should be a second sense, listed as an abbr.  approving the reading change
