"Is this all real? Or has this been happening inside my head?"
The topic of this article is of a real-life subject that has been mentioned "in-universe" in a canon source.

A treacle, also known as molasses, is any uncrystallised syrup by-product of the sugar refinement process, produced either by biological or mechanical means. Treacle is used in cooking to add flavour and as a sweetener or as a condiment.
Treacle comes in a number of forms, including the pale syrup known as golden syrup and the darker syrup known as dark or black treacle. Black treacle has a distinctively strong, bitter flavour, and is possessed of a richer colour than its "golden" cousin, yet not as dark as molasses. Golden syrup was the main sweetener in treacle tart, a favourite dessert of Harry Potter.[1]
Cooking[]
Treacle was the main ingredient in a number of dishes, including treacle tart, treacle fudge, and treacle pudding.
