Same - when I lived in Canada! If you want to bake a British flapjack or treacle tart, then there's no other substitute to golden syrup! I know some Great British Baking Shows include bakes with golden syrup, so hopefully this recipe will help a few looking to bake some British treats at home!! 💖😻

Tested. Worked. If you use citric acid use 1g per 1kg of sugar.

[@BlackCatKitchen]

Thank you! That’s very helpful!! 😻

[@SledDog5678]

@MichalHalczuk- Does your measure of citric acid affect the flavor profile of the finished syrup?

[@MichalHalczuk]

@@SledDog5678 It does not affect flavor at all - syrup just tastes sweet, with no hint of acidity. There is a tip however - if you boil it under cover at low heat for longer, you might get syrup that is more caramelized, but still stable. For normal, golden syrup, 2-4h at very low heat is optimal. Suggest doing it in large batches for heat efficiency - I use 3 kg sugar for each.

How much cream to make it caramel? ​@@BlackCatKitchen

[@BlackCatKitchen]

@@lindahardin7264 - I'd start with around 1 cup (237 ml) of cream, adding very slowly at the very end, stirring constantly.

[@Ccimahomes]

Can we use lime

[@BlackCatKitchen]

Unfortunately, there isn't enough acidity in a lime. If you don't have lemons at hand, you can use one tablespoon of bottled lemon juice, or a 1/4 tsp. of citric acid. Otherwise, I'd definitely recommend buying a lemon and using a slice to prevent the mixture from crystallizing. I hope this helps!! 🍋💖😻

[@carollenza3644]

Can I add vanilla flavoring after the syrup is made? Will it make it watery? I want to keep the thickness eventhicken it up for a recipe I am making.

[@BlackCatKitchen]

I’d recommend adding the vanilla to the recipe instead of adding it to the syrup. It will be hard to incorporate it after it’s made, and adding it while it’s still really liquid will just make the vanilla flavouring evaporate. Thanks so much for watching, and happy baking! 😻😻

So...this disheartened granny tried to make syrup using another channel's recipe, burnt the stuff twice, threw my hands up in frustration and found this channel - your syrup making is more efficient in looks, so I'll try this recipe in a few hour's time! I need a break to reset my mind into positivity😂😅😊

[@BlackCatKitchen]

Oh no 😢 sugar can be tricky to work with sometimes. Make sure the heat is low enough - this can take a while to get up to temperature, but hopefully my method will work out better for you!! ❤️

[@PamelaShak]

Can you use Splenda instead of sugar.

[@BlackCatKitchen]

I’ve never made it with Splenda, but from my experience using Splenda, it won’t melt and caramelise in the same way, because the chemical composition is not the same. It might work with Monk Fruit Sugar, but I can’t say for certain.

[@aminabakar7865]

Can use brown sugar

[@BlackCatKitchen]

I wouldn’t recommend it, as brown sugar already has a syrup added to it, so it might change the consistency and become too firm. I’d keep to using white sugars. I hope that helps!! 💖😻

[@PhillipMoon]

I also love that movie

[@jvallas]

Yum! (This sounds like caramel. Is the lemon the only difference?) edit: oh, wait, is it the long, slow process that makes it look so different?

[@BlackCatKitchen]

It's not as dark as a caramel would be; it's closer to a light, thick corn syrup! But yes, you're right! It's the long and slow process that creates this golden syrup. The lemon slice just helps to prevent the mixture from crystallising. If you give this a try, let me know how you get on!! 💖😻

Is the water necessary?

[@BlackCatKitchen]

It is! It helps with the consistency of the mixture, and it ensures the sugar doesn’t cook too quickly! I hope that helps! 💖😻

O wow I've never before seen golden syrup being made. Looks a similar method to toffee and Hokey pokey. Golden Syrup is readily available on Australian supermarket shelves and it's relatively cheap to buy whereas Treacle isn't! Just love all those syrupy things. Molasses I have in porridge and golden syrup on crumpets and toast and malt in hot milk for a wonderful 'pick me up'. It's a great alternative to maple syrup on pancakes too. Thank you for the demonstration Daniella. 👍🤤😀

[@johndavis7944]

@@BlackCatKitchen Yes please let me know how it goes 👍👎. I'm fresh out of crumpets here. But I will have some GS on buttered toast this morning with my cuppa tea. The availablity issue is because of the demographics. Canadians prefer Maple syrup as do the yanks. I don't know where golden syrup originated, but I'm sure it was invented as an alternative to maple being so hard to obtain in some countries and also the price. I know it is used a lot in Australian cooking and as a spread. A bushies breakfast consisted of fresh hot coals baked damper drizzled with golden syrup alongside a Billy Tea. So it's been around quite some time. 😉🤤 See ya!

QUESTION. Has ANYONE tried msking this w/o lemon and instead brudhing the pan sides with a damp pastry brush like in candy making? I don't like the hint of lemon. The famous brand doesn't have that lemon taste. Any suggestions????

[@SledDog5678]

I have read vinegar or citric acid pwdr can be used .... but......both have flavor issues.

[@BlackCatKitchen]

You can brush the pan sides with a damp pastry brush and not use the lemon, but it's a lot more involved and you'll need to keep brushing the sides with water throughout the cooking process. The lemon wedge prevents the sugar from crystallising, but it doesn't flavour the syrup. You'd have to be extremely sensitive to lemon to be able to taste it over the buttery caramel flavours of the syrup! You can use critic acid powder instead though! I hope this helps! ❤️😻

[@millennium677]

what makes toffee set and not golden syrup afaik toffee had citric acid added too

[@BlackCatKitchen]

It's all to do with the temperature the mixture is cooked to! Toffee requires a higher temperature. The hard-ball stage for toffee is between 250°F - 266°F (121C - 130C). If you took this golden syrup mixture to this temperature, it would also become a solid mass! Hope that helps! 💖😻

[@mchoe5890]

I made this golden syrup but it consolidated. What did I do wrong?

[@BlackCatKitchen]

I’m not exactly sure. When you say consolidated, do you mean it was a solid mass? If so, it will have been cooked too long. But if you mean crystallised, there could be a few different reasons. I always pour the water around the edge of the pan, as it creates a little dam so the sugar doesn’t creep up the sides. If you notice some of the mixture above the level of the water on the insides of the pot, these can burn and cause the rest of the mix to seize. A way to prevent this is using a pastry brush and occasionally brushing cool water along the inside edge of your pan. You always want to make sure you’re using a stainless steel or glass pan, and a wooden or silicone utensil, as the sugar mix can react to other metals. I hope this helps 😻😻❤️

If the temperature goes above 250F (120C), it'll enter the "hard ball" stage, whereby the mixture will solidify once it cools.

@@jvallas - If the mixture reaches or exceeds the "hard ball" stage and turns to a toffee, while it's still warm, I'd suggest pouring it out onto a lined baking sheet and letting it harden completely. I'd then break up the toffee and pulse it through a food processor to create sugar dust for cakes, bakes and anything you want to sweeten. That's really all you can do if you overheat the mixture. I hope that helps! 💖

The music ruins this otherwise lovely video. Please consider that we don't all find the music you like, pleasant. Also, what's wrong with just cooking noises and instructions? Seriously, so annoying. It's just my opinion, and it's your channel, but many people, myself included, will never subscribe to a channel we have to be annoyed by in order to get the information the video provides.

Thanks for the feedback! The background music was a little loud in this video and for the last 6 months or so, we've been reducing the volume of the background music. If you watch one of my latest episodes, you'll see what I mean! Most food channels opt for background music to fill in quiet spaces, and cooking noises with instructions can be really tricky to manage with microphones and noise levels, especially if a dish is particularly noisy e.g. braising meat!
