2 tbsp golden syrup in grams
2 tbsp of golden syrup = 42.5 grams · 29.6 ml · 6 tsp

Based on a measured density of 340 g per US cup (236.6 ml), poured level rather than to the brim. Last reviewed .
How 2 tbsp of golden syrup works out
A US tablespoon is 1/16 of a cup, so take the weight of a cup of golden syrup and multiply: 340 × 0.125 = 42.5 g. By volume that is 29.6 ml, the same in the US, UK, Canada and New Zealand.
Australia is the exception: an Australian tablespoon holds 20 ml, not 15, so 2 tbsp of golden syrup from an Australian recipe is about 57.5 g. Heaped spoons are not a measure at all; a heaped spoonful can hold half as much again.
Tip: Warm golden syrup gently or oil the cup so it pours; cold from the tin it is slow and clingy.
