    I Made these ginger gems today, was worried they would be gluggy
    with so much golden syrup but they turned out beautiful.

    This is the best gem recipe I have found- easy to make. I made 23 good size gems with this size mix (filling the gem iron to just under the top)- and I will defiantly be making these again- If you are looking for a good recipe give this one a try. Thanks
