Was at a cafe today they had the nicest Ginger Gem , how to describe it... was sticky and very moist would love a recipe like that please. Have made them before but these were sooo good, the recipes I have made dont turn out sticky like the cafes one. Any recipe that is like that one would be greatly appreciated, many thanks

Its the golden syrup that makes them nice and sticky. What is the amount of golden syrup that you have in your recipe?

Hi Malcovy recipe calls for 1/2 cup of golden syrup

Okay there goes my theory. My recipe calls for 2 household tablespoons of golden syrup. Does your recipe make the standard sized gem iron?

When making gingerbread with a good amount of golden syrup, the gingerbread is always better the next day if its kept in a plastic bag. I am guessing you know this though. Actually I am surprised a cafe made ginger gems as it is such an old fashioned wonderful delight that people are shying away from. I much prefer the older style of baking.

Could they have been gingerbread cooked in irons do you think?

Good idea Malcovy about the plastic bag i will try that. And yes I did wonder about using a gingerbread loaf recipe in my ginger gem irons and see if that makes a difference.It is great to see old recipes in a cafe. I love old recipes :)
