treacle sponge
Golden sticky dessert
Treacle sponge is a British steamed pudding made with golden syrup, which despite the name is not actually treacle.
The sponge cake sits atop a layer of syrup that soaks into the base during cooking, creating a sticky, sweet dessert typically served warm with custard: We had treacle sponge for pudding.
