Related to Honey
Maple Syrup
Maple syrup is thinner and lighter than honey (325 g vs 350 g per cup), with a clean caramel note rather than floral sweetness. Reduce other liquid by 2 to 3 tbsp per cup if the bake turns out wetter than expected. See our Maple Syrup converter.
Golden Syrup
Golden syrup weighs the same per cup (350 g) and is similarly thick, with a buttery toffee note rather than floral. Works 1:1 in flapjacks, gingerbread, and glazes; loses honey's distinctive aroma. See our Golden Syrup converter.
Molasses
Molasses is darker and more bittersweet than honey, with a stronger flavour even in small amounts. They are close in weight (honey 350 g, molasses 340 g per cup), but only swap them where the recipe suits a robust, dark character. See our Molasses converter.
