Collection: Tate & Lyle - Fairtrade Cane Sugar for British Baking

British recipes are written for caster sugar, and swapping in American granulated is where a Victoria sponge goes wrong. Tate & Lyle has been refining cane sugar on the Thames since 1878 and it is the packet those recipes mean.

In stock: Fairtrade Pure Cane Caster Sugar, Fairtrade Icing Sugar, Fairtrade Light Brown Soft, Brown Cane Demerara Cubes and White Sugar Cubes, all 500g.

Caster for sponges, icing for buttercream, demerara cubes for the coffee tray. Pure cane, not beet, which is what gives the brown sugars their toffee note. Imported by us and shipped out of Massachusetts.

Golden syrup is the British baking ingredient with no American substitute. Corn syrup is thinner and neutral; golden syrup is thick, amber and faintly caramel, and swapping one for the other changes flapjacks, treacle tart and steamed puddings entirely.

Golden Syrup, Caster Sugar and Demerara
The green and gold tin is the one British bakers reach for. Caster sugar is finer than American granulated and dissolves faster in sponges and meringues. Demerara is the coarse brown sugar for crumble tops and tea. Between them they cover most of what a British recipe assumes you already have.

FAQ

Q1: What is golden syrup?
A thick amber cane sugar syrup with a mild caramel flavour, used across British baking.

Q2: Can I use corn syrup instead?
It is thinner and far less flavoured, so results differ. Golden syrup is what British recipes are written for.

Q3: What is caster sugar?
A fine grain white sugar, between granulated and powdered, used for sponges, meringues and creaming.
