Gourmet Caramel Apple Recipe - Homemade

Man, I love these things. Ok so the caramel sticks to your teeth and I drool when I eat them! So what! Its like a right of passage into Fall! New apples fresh off the farm and tons of caramel and maybe some chocolate or candies on it to make my eyes wiggle!!! Ohh yes! It’s that time again! And the price to buy them goes up and up! We saw some gourmet ones for $20! That’s nuts! So we make them ourselves in our family.

We use Peter’s bulk caramel and it tastes excellent! Buying bulk caramel will save you from unwrapping all those crazy little caramels in those wrappers! 5 pounds of caramel covers approximately 20 apples, depending on the size of the apple and the temperature of the caramel.

You can choose to decorate warm caramel with chocolate chips , red hot candies, nuts, toffee crunch , candy confetti , or other fun things.

Another option is to dip caramel-coated apples into melted Guittard chocolate, allowing the excess to drip off, and then rolling them in nuts or candy. For something different, take a candy painting bottle, and drizzle melted chocolate over caramel-coated apples and sprinkle with decorations.
