This classic homemade Halloween items are apples tempting, indeed. But the biggest challenge to make them more slippery, melted caramel apple stick to the surface is slippery. Here's what to do so they change party-perfect every time.
Apples: Clean, Cool, dry
- Choose firm apples without soft spots or stains.
- Wash and dry them thoroughly, remove the stem and insert craft stick.
- Chill prepared apples in the freezer while you melt the caramel.
Caramel: Not Too Hot
- Follow the recipe directions melted caramel in a bowl or measuring cup that is deep enough to dip the apples.
- Let the caramel cool thaw for a few minutes to thicken up. If caramel is too hot, it will slide right off the apple.
Dip It Good
- Clean each apple one more time before dipping to remove any condensation from the fridge.
- Holding ice cream sticks, dip apples into hot caramel, turning even coverage.
- Gently rotate the apples after dipping to help roll back the excess caramel to drip into the apple.
- Place the dipped apples base-side on wax paper that has been coated with butter or oil.
Top tips from the Community AR
- If you want to decorate with pieces of stuff, just sprinkle a little on the side facing you, and press gently into caramel. Do not roll up or pushing it into the caramel topping as it moves away from apples and contribute to a pool of highly gloppy or apples. - LizzieBearCooks
- I followed the advice of the other assessors, rolling apple wax in boiling water, wipe them down, put the Popsicle sticks in it, then put them in the freezer for 15 minutes. - TheMeadow.artfire.com
- The suggestion of another reviewer using a large Pyrex measuring cup ... makes it easy to cover the whole apple. - Margcamp
- Like others I put my apples in the freezer while I melted caramel me and then put them back in the freezer for about 15 minutes. They set up great! - kateandnatesmom
