One interesting fact about molasses is that it is a chelating agent. This means it can reverse molecular processes affecting metals. A rusty piece of metal immersed in molasses will eventually return to a shiny condition.
The above information is good to have, but doesn't answer my question. I need to know which flavours are stronger or more delicate. I recently made a dark rye bread and the American recipe called for molasses.
Here in Australia I only had treacle which I used. The flavour of the bread was a bit sharp with a bitter twinge. Not happy. I needed some sort of 'graded' information Can you provide that information along with how the different grades of molasses and treacles affect the flavours? Thank you, Eve. Golden Corn Syrup light or dark is not the same as Golden Syrup. The cooking temperatures and other properties of the cane vs corn sugars are different and they cannot be substituted in most recipes.
Nowadays, treacle is a blend of molasses and refinery syrup. It ranges in color from light gold to nearly black. British treacle can be substituted for molasses in most recipes, but much less frequently will molasses work as a replacement for treacle. If you do substitute molasses for treacle, use the lightest, unsulphured molasses you can find. Treacle is a more general term meaning a syrup formed during the sugar refining process. It can range in color and consistency.
Black treacle is molasses, but there are lighter versions of treacle. Of course, the flavor profiles will be different depending on the type of treacle. For toffee pudding, the use of molasses will work, but the flavor will probably be heavily influenced. I've see recipes that use light corn syrup, Lyle's golden syrup, or even brown sugar. That tells me that lighter versions are probably more typical. Sign up to join this community. The best answers are voted up and rise to the top.

During the early 20th century, molasses was used as a sweetener it was extremely popular by the way. It is perfect for classic recipes, such as holiday bake recipes, such as baked beans and gingerbread. Molasses must be stored in a dry, cool, and dark place to retain the flavor. However, the crystals are precipitated out to make the consistent and smooth syrup.
Some people also cook this mixture in various cycles but the sugar content will be actually less. Conversely, molasses is the by-product of processing sugar cane into sugar. Black treacle is the equivalent of dark molasses note that it is lighter in flavor and less bitter than most blackstrap molasses. What can you use black treacle for? Use black treacle as a sweetener in cakes, breads, toffee, biscuits, sauces, casseroles and Christmas pudding; it can also be used to glaze and marinate meat.

The most common forms of treacle are golden syrup, a pale variety, and a darker variety known as black treacle. Black treacle, or molasses, has a distinctively strong, slightly bitter flavour, and a richer colour than golden syrup. Is it OK to use out of date black treacle?
