Related Golden Syrup Ingredients
Honey and golden syrup are both thick liquid sweeteners, but honey carries floral notes from nectar while golden syrup gives a buttery toffee flavour. They weigh the same per cup (350 g), so swap 1:1 by volume in bakes that suit either flavour, like flapjacks or gingerbread. See honey in cups.
Maple syrup is thinner than golden syrup and tastes of caramel and tree sap rather than toffee. Golden syrup is heavier (350 g vs 325 g per cup) and richer in flavour, so the two are not perfect 1:1 swaps; weigh and expect a sweeter, stickier result from golden syrup. See maple syrup in cups.
Molasses is slightly lighter (340 g vs 350 g per cup) and much more bitter than golden syrup. Use it only in recipes designed for its strong, dark flavour, such as gingerbread or treacle tart. See our Molasses converter.
