Golden Syrup
Golden Syrup is a sweet, viscous liquid used as a topping and sweetener in many cuisines — from pancakes and desserts to marinades and traditional Asian recipes (e.g., mullyeot). It is energy-dense, providing about 265kcal per 100 g and is primarily composed of simple sugars. Nutritionally it contributes almost no protein or fiber and only trace amounts of minerals. Because it is mainly sugar with few micronutrients or antioxidants, it’s best used sparingly as a flavoring rather than a staple ingredient.
