Baking Conversion FAQ
Everything you need to know about measuring golden syrup accurately for your recipes.
One standard UK tablespoon (15 ml) of golden syrup weighs approximately 21.6 grams. This is calculated using the average density of golden syrup, which is about 1.44 g/ml.
Golden syrup is highly viscous and sticky, making it difficult to measure accurately by volume. Measuring by weight (grams) using a digital kitchen scale ensures precise, consistent results in baking and cooking, and significantly reduces mess.
The density of golden syrup is approximately 1.44 grams per millilitre (g/ml). This means it is significantly heavier than water, which has a density of 1 g/ml.
To convert grams to tablespoons, divide the weight in grams by 21.6. For example, 100 grams of golden syrup ÷ 21.6 = approximately 4.63 tablespoons.
