lilyk> 100g butter is just under 1/2 cup. about 0.4 cups if that make any sense.
260g flour is about 2 cups + 1 tbs flour.

strandjss>caster sugar is superfine sugar in the US. If you can’t find it, you can grind granulated sugar in a food processor or pestle and mortar.
A common brand for golden syrup is Lyles golden syrup. The colour is like honey but the consistency is like corn syrup. It has a very suble nutty taste to it. If you can’t find it, you can sub with honey or corn syrup.

Oh I definitely am going to bake this Friday. The only place I have found ginger beer is at the health food store – has anyone ever found this somewhere else?
Clarification on caster sugar and golden syrup….what are they?
Thanks

Thanks for the info. Ive got a couple stores near me that may have it. I like that it’s spicier than ginger ale!
