Golden Syrup

Golden syrup is a thick, amber-colored sweet syrup made from refined cooked sugar, typically derived from sugarcane or sugar beet juice. It has a smooth, viscous consistency and a rich, caramel-like flavor with subtle hints of toffee. Often used in baking, cooking, and desserts, golden syrup enhances sweetness and moisture, making baked goods more tender and flavorful. It’s popular in recipes like flapjacks, gingerbread, and syrup drizzles, serving as a versatile alternative to honey or corn syrup. Its distinctive color and taste also make it a recognizable ingredient in various traditional and modern sweet dishes.
