I don't understand this, your recipe says 2 tablespoons of mincemeat, which would have 32 grams sugar, according to my jar of Robertson's mincemeat. And 2 tablespoons of golden syrup!! All in one serving? Can you help?

Depends how sweet you want it, for me mincemeat on it's own doesn't make it sweet enough so the golden syrup gives it that extra sweetness, you could try it with just mincemeat and see if it is sweet enough for your tastes. You could also add less golden syrup if you want somewhere in between.
