Today I’m sharing How to Make sweet Apples Any Color! Why? Well, this morning I awakened and the primary factor on my to-do record was Hot Pink and Orange Candy Apples.
HOW TO MAKE CANDY APPLES ANY COLOR!!
DESCRIPTION
These multicolored candied, splattered and glittered apples will certainly be the highlight of any get together.
INGREDIENTS:
6–8 medium apples (washed, dried & stems removed)**
3 cups of white sugar
½ cup faded corn syrup
1 cup water
1 tsp vanilla extract (or different flavoring)
2 tbsp white meals coloring (I suggest AmeriColor Bright White Soft Gel Paste or Lorann White Food Coloring)
1–2 tsp. of gel coloring (whichever coloration you desire your apples to be! – I used Americolor Electric Pink and Americolor Orange) – the extra coloration you use, the brighter the apples will be!)
Candy Apple Sticks (or craft sticks or quick dowels)
** I used exceptionally big Granny Smith Apples. I love the tartness of the inexperienced apples, but I desire that they had been smaller. They have been difficult to wrap and I wasn’t capable to dip as many simply due to the fact the recipe indicated!
OTHER THINGS YOU’LL NEED:
Cookie Sheet
Non-stick Spray
Heavy Duty Boiler or Sauce Pan
Candy Thermometer
Rubber Spatula
INSTRUCTIONS:
Combine the sugar, corn syrup, water, and meals coloring (both the white and coloration you desire the apples to be) in a heavy boiler (sauce pan). Turn on medium to excessive warmth and permit the combination come to a boil.
Be certain to have a sweet thermometer inserted into the combination but no longer touching the bottom!
Let the sweet come to 302°F (hard crack stage). This will take about 20 minutes. There’s no ought to stir or disturb the combination whereas it heats… simply be patient!
While that’s going on… make certain your apples are prepared (washed, dried, and at the sticks!), then spray a cookie sheet with non-stick butter spray. The “butter” style isn’t necessary, but butter makes everything better, right? If you don’t have butter, simply use usual non-stick cooking spray.
When the sweet reaches 302°, right this moment take away it from the warmth and use a rubber spatula to stir within the vanilla (or different flavor). Stir it gently to get the style lightly incorporated but with out blending in too a lot air.
You’ll desire to work speedy simply due to the fact the sweet will soar to cool immediately. As effortlessly simply due to the fact the style is lightly combined in, commence dipping your apples.
