Easy, simple, light and delicious. I reduced the sugar and didn’t do the icing, so that my mother can enjoy it. Really lovely, thank you.

Hi Vicki,
Just wondering, what can I substitute the golden syrup with if I don't have the golden syrup? Can't wait to try your recipe!
Thank you!
Vicki
Hi Siew, apologies for the late response. You should be able to substitute golden syrup with honey or maple syrup, although I have not tried it. Kind regards, Vicki.
