As fall approaches


Summer is coming to a close. Kids are starting to go back to school. September is right around the corner and Halloween will be here and then Thanksgiving. The fall brides are busily creating their color themed ideas that match the feel of all things the season.


WELL…how adorable would it be to offer instead of your typical dessert fair, a candy apple bar (the miniature apples of course).  Here are the directions on how to make an adorable caramel apples for your wedding.

Ingredients

  • 24 miniature apples, washed and stemmed
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup dark corn syrup
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • Sticks to use at the end.

Directions

  1. Insert a 5-inch dowel or ice pop stick into the top of each apple. Place hazelnuts in a small bowl.
  2. Place sugar, corn syrup, cream, and butter in a small saucepan, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Continue cooking until the temperature registers 245 degrees.on a candy thermometer, 10 to 12 minutes. Fill a large bowl with ice water. Remove saucepan from heat, and briefly plunge it into ice water to stop the cooking. Dip one apple into the caramel, coat the top and sides using a spoon,  Transfer to a serving platter. Repeat with the remaining apples.
  3. Place the wood sticks into top of apples to “act as stem”
