Golden syrup is a thick amber sugar syrup made from sugar cane juice, with a buttery toffee flavour. One metric cup (250 ml) of golden syrup weighs around 350 grams or 12.35 ounces, the same weight as honey. It is a British baking staple in flapjacks, treacle tart, gingerbread, and steamed puddings.

Golden syrup is so sticky that scooping a clean cup is hard. Weighing in grams or millilitres is the most reliable way to get the right amount without the mess of a coated measuring cup.

  • light treacle
  • cane syrup

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 what 1 ounce of honey is in grams.

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.

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 what 1 ounce of molasses is in grams.
